Winter Gardening in L.A.

Here are some photos I took last weekend when Kate and I were gardening. We’ve been having gorgeous weather — in the 70s and 80s all week.

We planted lettuce, thyme, mint, dandelion, shallots, garlic, onion, peas, dill, and fennel.

I love growing all these herbs and lettuce in the backyard. It is so great just to step outside and grab a handful of parsley or sage. And soon I will have a ton of salad greens!

I’m most excited about the blood oranges and Meyer lemon. I bought those trees last spring and they are already bearing fruit! Nothing on the avocado or lime trees yet.
