It may be cold and grey out there today, but this is a perfect time for gardeners to start planning what they would like to plant in their 2023 garden beds. For many of us, the process begins by looking at seed catalogues. This is the best time of year to order seeds; not only are there more varieties of seed available but ordering now will ensure that your seeds arrive with plenty of time to start before planting season begins!
