		<description><![CDATA[You might think it&#8217;s weird to think about the gardening season now, but it isn&#8217;t.  Even though your garden patch might be buried in snow right now, depending on where you are, you still need to get off your hindquarters and start planning now.

(&#8230;) If you&#8217;ve got a garden plot rolling already you&#8217;re in good stead. While we normally have a long growing season here in southwest Missouri, we are about a month behind schedule because of the massive flooding and late frosts—but we&#8217;ll still give it the old college try.
