Spring is slowly returning, and the garden is starting to wake up! In this video, I take a walk around my garden to see what’s happening: my raised beds are beginning to take shape, snowdrops are starting to appear, and I check on the plants I sowed over the winter in my mini greenhouses.
I also go through my seed supplies, reviewing expiration dates and organizing packets by sowing months to prepare for the upcoming planting season. Along the way, I notice some deer have nibbled on the roses and even my little magnolia—but the garden still looks promising.
It’s the perfect time to swap winter boots for rubber boots, enjoy the increasing sunny days, and celebrate the first small steps of spring in the garden.

Yay for spring! I hope you have a wonderful growing season, Ilze. You live in a beautiful place. I don’t understand anything you say but the language sounds nice. Have a great weekend! ❤️

I didn’t see any subtitles but that could be my browser’s fault, Ilze.

You have to turn them on – on the video, there is CC – might be in the upper corner or the bottom right corner 🙂

Oh, thanks Ilze. I obviously have never used that option before. I think the road should be paved so that it can be used in the spring thaw, how do you guys get out to town?

It will be fine unless the big car uses this road 🙂 It is latvian countryside 🙂

I see, I always avoided the dirt roads in Michigan whether they were wet or dry. Muddy or dusty. Still do the same here.

O jā, līdz maijam vēl laiciņš, bet gan jau būs šogad arī plūmes – baltās ziedu kupenas un ābeles ar maigi rozā ziediņiem 🙂 Cerams tad vēl taisīšu youtube video 🙂 un varēšu nošārot.
