Notes
Pennsylvanian Butter-Flavored Popcorn from Southern Seed Savers. Started this in topsoil bought with Holli's help. Didn't think much would happen, but the plants are growing well. Add green bean seedling among the corn plants. Maybe I'll get some squash and make it into a true milpa plot with all of the three sisters.

Experimental: this feature is new and might be flaky. These dates are estimates from 25 km weather-model data, not readings from a station at your garden, so a cold spot can be colder. They may be wrong, so check your national weather service and ask local growers before relying on them.
