| Asian greens.. under a mini hoop tunnel. These were 'volunteer' babies that I replanted to this bed.. Then covered it for winter and we're still using the greens for salads and stir-fries. |

| This bed demonstrates the extreme hardiness of kale, Asian greens like mizuna and mustards, arugula and radishes. I had covered it with a mini tunnel in early December, but just roughly with no actual clips securing the plastic. I totally forgot that I never secured it and of course the cover blew off in a late Dec snowstorm. That bed has since been covered with about 15 cm of snow for the past month and was uncovered in the last few weeks of arctic temp's. But, once that snow melted in this weeks mild patch, the veggies were FINE!! I have since re-covered the bed and now that it's Feb, we're getting more than 10 hours of sunlight a day and these will begin to regrow again.. |

| Curly parsley that has no cover.. The plant is 10 inches across and still producing. |
 |
| A carrot cold frame ready for picking! Our other one is nearly empty, so we'll be turning to this carrot factory for the rest of winter. |
