And now is the time when people in these climes begin gardening. The average date for the last freeze in Montreal is May 10, it seems. Last week I brought in the two tomatoes and four cucumber plants I bought last week to grow with Thomas and Jeanne--didn't freeze, but they had begun to look a little sad.
But there is a way to garden all year around here, as this report on Radio Canada shows. A geodesic dome that captures sunlight all year round produces 80 percent of this family's vegetable needs. Cost $12,000 US and is probably only allowed in rural areass. Interesting idea, though.
