Early Spring Harvest

Mache' growing in North Idaho garden
The mache' was planted last Fall and overwintered in the cold frames. Mache' is extremely cold tolerant  and survived numerous sub zero winter days.
Harvesting Mache' in early Spring in North Idaho
There is something about tromping out in the snow...cracking open a cold frames and seeing something green and beautiful growing in the depths of Winter...Fast forward to early Spring and Mache' is worth the wait.
Fresh Mache' from Zone 5 Northern Garden
We love it tossed in an everyday green salad.
