Planning Time

I think I've procrastinated long enough - it's time to start planning the 2011 garden.
I've got my catalogs:

• The Cook's Garden
• Seed Savers Exchange
• Seeds of Change
• Johnny's Selected Seeds

My favorite catalog is Bluestone Perennials, but that's not for vegetables, just flowers.

I'm thinking that the last frost date I'm going to use is April 30 for cold season crops and May 16 for warm season crops.  Perhaps thinking about it now will help... unless I forget about this completely.
