Is that newspaper around the plant in the last picture?

It is! I've taken to recycling paper to make pots for the seedlings. Works pretty well, and no more last minute runs to the wally world for peat pots. :)

I’ve been doing the newspaper pots for a few years myself.

Your plants look lovely.

I was going to start some of my bed prep today, but it rained here in Connecticut. Hope that we’ll have a dry day tomorrow so I can plant my peas. My grandmother always said that peas should be planted on Good Friday.

We have been making 3” pots using newspaper, but those in the picture look much larger.
