We found wild strawberries growing north of our lilacs! Some even have flowers and little berries started. I dug some up and transplanted them so the goats don't eat them all.
While I was at it, I planted some old bare root asparagus that G had brought back from the garden center. The ground back there must hold a lot of moisture because there is moss growing in a nice mat among the grass and dandelions. The shovelfuls stuck together, so I just set them back, settled in my asparagus (see below) and then laid them back down.
As I was digging, a lot of dandelions came up and I threw them off to the side in a pile. As I worked it suddenly occurred to me that some people specifically save dandelion root for herbal remedies. How could I let them go to waste?!
