It unbelievable but the leeks are sold out!
for this fruit. Weather forecasts have been sayin' back to the normal NW spring and summer temperatures.
Garden soils are warm enough for planting according to Cliff Mass who says on
KPLU's Weather with Cliff Mass: "At least, for vegetable gardeners, the warmer temperatures that we've had over the past month raised soil temperatures, says Mass."
