Lock combination

A quick reminder the lock combination is: 3411 for the shed and wheelbarrow

Fall Cleaning

I hope everyone will get a chance to enjoy this warm sun today! I'll soon be in the garden to do more cleaning and seed some spinach! Yes, spinach will grow in the early winter cold temperatures.

As I was working in the garden yesterday I thought of some useful ways we all as a community can contribute to keep the garden as sustainable as possible.

 Fall clean up sure can build a big pile in the compost. Some of you may remember last spring clean up and the large pile we had.
1.) Please, make sure anything you place in the compost bin is 4" or smaller in length and width. If cutting your organic matter is not possible PLEASE, place it in one of the city compost-able bags and place it next to the shed and not in the  compost bins! 
2.)Please, no weed no seeds in the compost
3.) Please, no diseased plants
4.) Please, no tomatoes or vine crops
 If cutting your organic matter is not possible PLEASE, place it in one of the city compost-able bags and place it next to the shed and not in the compost bin!

*If you use the bags and they are getting down to the end, please let me know so I can pick more up. An email or text message 612.554.6656

Thank you for all you do to contribute to keeping the garden as sustainable as possible!

Happy Fall!

The garden has been looking amazing this whole summer! We can feel that fall is in the air and the first frost is coming soon. The MN summers sure do go fast.  I hope everyone has enjoyed their times in the garden, it was lovely to see everyone here and there through out the garden!

 I can't believe it's been since July when I posted last on the blog, time sure does fly by when your having fun! I have been enjoying this summer gardening in the community garden, working at the school, volunteering at the CSA farms and my cats and I going to the folks farm to enjoy the country fresh air.

While you are making your last harvest of produce, keep in mind that it can be donated to Empty Bowls which is coming up, November 4th! Stay tuned for more details as we get closer to the day.

http://propfood.org/get-involved/empty-bowls-2016/

We will also be having a fall clean up day on Thursday October 20th at 5:30 pm! This will be the day to clean out your plot if you don't have time to get to it before that.  We will also be cleaning up the walk way, perennials, hostas, fruit trees, back of the garden, compost and organizing the she.

I'll be looking forward to seeing every one there!

Take time to see the beautiful fall colors!
:)
Lynn

KEY IS MISSING

The shed/wheel barrow key is missing!

If you see it lying around or have accidentally placed it in your pocket/bag, please return it asap. Thank you! This has happened to a handful of us plenty of times, no worries.

Cell Number

I am going to admit that with the summer in full speed with gardening and teaching i have not been checking the garden email as much as i did in the spring.

If there is something that needs to be fixed or what not in the garden please, send me a text or a phone call so I can  get to it asap at 612.554.6656

 Thank You!


Thursday, Community Gardening Day!

I am looking forward to seeing you all tonight in the garden!

A couple things we are thinking that of finishing up and working on.
*finish spreading the compost in the back
*covering that compost in the back with mulch
*the remaining mulch be placed in-between the garden plots and the walk way
*picking the endless weeds that join us :)
* finish planting the daylilys that were so kindly donated to our garden!

Please, remember to tip over the wheelbarrow be fore you lock it up.  This prevents the rain from settling inside it which causes rust.

Lets work on plot 1 together! Keeping it weed free and watered for its the Empty Bowels plot. Thank you!

Thursday, June 23rd

Hello 3437 Gardeners!

Happy Summer Solstice June 20th!

Looks like all the plants survived the heat, I hope you all did :)  

We are welcoming gardeners Jim  plot 6A and Chantal plot 14, Happy Gardening!

I will not be able to make it to the community gardening day this coming Thursday but please keep on picking the weeds!  If the Empty Bowls (plot 1) needs water, please do that as well.
Was thinking of spreading the rest of the compost in the back to prep the soil for dwarf tree/perennial planting.  Also, finish spreading the mulch in between plots, along the path way and in the back after spreading out the compost.

Happy Gardening!

ALERT Leaf-miner


Hi! I noticed some spinach in a bed toward the front that is being eaten by leaf-miner. Once plants are big they can survive it, but at this stage, it needs daily/every other day manual removal of the eggs otherwise they'll likely kill the plant. It's pretty common, so is likely in other plots too. Check the backs of every spinach, beet or chard leaf. You'll see tiny little tight rows of tiny little white eggs. Just rub those off with your finger as often as you can. If they hatch, a tiny worm burrows into the leaf, between the layers, and eats itself into a big grub. It leaves a little trail behind it as it meanders through the leaf. If you find the grubs just tear out that part of the leaf and squish em.

Hello gardeners! I'm sure you're all antsy to get the nutritious compost into your plots. The delivery have been rescheduled for this Thursday, May 19th. It will not arrive tonight, May 16th as previously planned. Please please make it to the garden to help move the compost from the street to each plot on Thursday. Your plants and fellow gardeners will thank you!

Weeds

When picking weeds please,please do not put them in the compost! Please, put them in the white compost bags that are biodegradable and leave the bag next to the shed.  The weeds will never come to an end if we keep feeding our garden weeds through the compost :)  Thank you!    Lets leave the volunteer milkweed, butterflies and bees love it :)

Little Projects

What a beautiful Sunday we had today! Sunny and a lot warmer than we have been having these last couple days.  Thank you to everyone who is helping out, the garden is looking better and better!  I like the herbs up front :)   The back I got to working on this evening and it looks better already.  I plan on spreading out the large compost pile on top of the straw that is spread-ed out and then applying the mulch on top of that. I thought the soul would enjoy this organic matter so we can do some perennial planting in the back to make it cozy and more welcoming!  We also spoke about planting some dwarf trees in the back to help block the garbage pile along with some spring dwarf blooming trees.  Lets keep spreading the mulch, the pile is becoming smaller and smaller!  We can pick the weeds in between the beads and spread it there, in the center on the path, in the back over the spread-ed organic matter and that should do it.  I want to hang up the tools in the shed, there are nails in the white plastic jar and ribbon next to that.  And the compost always needs a turning :)

Compost

As we know the compost will be coming tomorrow between 6 and 6:30 pm.  If this doesn't happen I will post on the blog asap!  I apologize for this confusion the city is very busy and can not give a 100% with a date. I will stay in touch about this as soon as possible with as much detail as possible.  Thank you all for being flexible and understanding .

Saturday, May 14, 2016

Compost

As of now (the city is busy with making deliveries) our compost will be delivery Monday, May 16th between 6 and 6:30 pm.

Let's move this compost as a community and  hail it in each plot and the extra for the berries and perennial plants!

 Please, let me know if you don not want  compost in your pot.  If your plot is full of weeds we will not be putting compost in it unless you contact me for you are not able to make to your plot before Monday evening.

Seedlings

Later today there will be more seedlings in the shed (till it warms up) for the planting, they are free from Gardening Matters!

Community Working Days

Another chili MN spring day!  I hope everyone's plants are hanging in there and getting the TLC they need to make it through this brisk weather.

We are making Thursday's the Community Working Day! 

 I am looking forward to seeing everyone on Thursday's!  I try to get to the garden more often during the week so please, feel free to join then as well.

I will be in the garden around 3 ish today and tomorrow at some point after work.

Community

What a nice rain we had this afternoon! I plan on going to the garden this evening to plant a couple perennials that are donated to the garden and work on spreading mulch.

We really need to work as a community to get the mulch pile spread by next Monday the 16th for that is when our compost is arriving. I'll be in the garden everyday this week working on thinning the pile out.
15, 20, 30 minuets it all will be a great help, ever little bit helps out :)

Thank you to all who have been helping out, the garden is looking better and better!

Reminder to water from the barrels by hand, keep the lids on and refill them when they are below 1/3 full.

Reminder when you are planting, keep you plants contained in your plot.

The suns heat!

Good evening Gardeners,

What beautiful weather is here!  With this heat I'd like to say the water is on. The landlord asked if we keep the front year of his building looking nice for free water. I filled up the blue barrels, please use that water first and refill them when you are done.  Lets work together as a community with doing this.  If any ones has perennials that need a home, they may get cozy there.

It's best to water in early am or the evening when the sun is not as intense. Please, no over head watering.

We were gifted strawberries, planted in the garden beds to the east of the shed.  Also seedlings of Amish Tomato and Kale.  :) The seedlings are cozy to the right of the shed.

The compost is coming May 16th!

Just a reminder to please keep all your plants contained in your plot, the garden becomes cozy at times.

Compost: nothing larger than 4" in the compost, no weeds with seeds, no diseased plants, no tomatoes or vine crops.  We have a couple pruners in the shed for cutting compost to 4".

The shed key is placed behind the big white stone to your right if your facing the shed. It's covered with much and I placed a rock with a heart over the key container.

Thank you for everyone's support and help! We are a community working together to keep this garden happy!



Monday, May 2, 2016

Mulch!

The mulch is coming tomorrow!  We are getting 15 yards, a nice amount to do a good mulching! Lets pull out all the grass from under the fruit trees, add compost (it'll be here soon) then apply mulch.
Please, pick the weeds before we lye mulch down in between the garden beads and the walk way. Also, lets mulch around the perennials after we pick out the weeds and grass.  Any extra mulch will be put in the back to help keep the weeds down.

Tomorrow I work till 7 pm I will not be able to help with the mulch but everyday this week around 5:30/6 pm I will be in the garden! It will be wonderful to see you there if you can make it.  I have been slowly picking at the compost pile as well.

Please, don't put anything larger than 4" into the compost. There are pruners to cut material into 4" size. If it can't be cut then please throw it in the trash, thank you!

I'm super excited as the garden is progressing, thanks to everyone!


Beautiful MayDay

Hello 3437 Gardeners,

What a beautiful day we had for MayDay celebration!  I think we are going to have some nice weather this week, since the last two days we were going to meet in the garden it rained.

I am still waiting to hear back from the city with our compost. I'll keep you posted asap!  The Tree Company that brought our mulch the last couple years is no longer able to help us out. I have contacted other Tree Services and will let you know asap on delivery dates.

I am going to go to the garden tonight and pick a couple dandelions and bag up more of the large compost to clean up that area. Do you have plans? Come pick yourself a boutique of flowers :)

I will offer an up to date plot rental map next Monday, then if there are more available, feel free to rent a second one!

The raspberries have started to spread!



Tuesday, April 26, 2016

Thursday

Looking forward to seeing you on Thursday in the garden! It would be nice to clean up the remaining compost pile and get some more weeds picked before the Mayday event on Sunday!

Saturday, April 23, 2016

Seeds and Plants!

Sunny Day!

I got seeds today from Gardening Matters! I will be placing them in the shed in a box labeled, SEEDS, help yourself and please, put back what you don't use. There are a lot of seeds in each packet.

Plants will be arriving May 14th, also from Gardening Matters! A lovely community they are, check them out :)

Please, take a look at thee seeds and plants before you buy your own, they are free! 

The compost is coming soon! May 2nd or 4th or 5th between 6 and 6:30, Ill keep you posted when I hear back form the city on which day it is. I'll need a lot of help with this so, please come if you can. They dump it on the street and we have to haul it into the garden :)

Rain check

Hello Gardeners,

The rain smells so good, I even heard a couple thunders!  A rain check it is for meeting at the garden by 6 pm today. If the rain stops I may walk over and do a little  bagging of the compost. Otherwise lets go with next Thursday for meeting at the garden around 6 pm!

Monday, April 18, 2016

Key location

The grill has been thrown into the dumpster, it was not workable. The key is now behind the rock that is to the right of the shed. :)

Friday, April 15, 2016

Extra seedlings

Bretton has  extra seedlings of Kale, Tomatoes, and probably basil if People are interested! We are thinking of making a cozy home for them near the shed while they wait to be planted.  If they don't get planted within a reasonable time they will be planted in an empty bed :) 

Thanks Bretton!

3437 Garden update

Good evening 3437 Gardeners!

This warm sun sure feels great, I hope everyone was able to find a little time to enjoy the vitamin D!  I first would like to say I am working on organizing the plots and soon will post them, thank you for your patience and understanding during this process.

I ordered the compost from the city of Minneapolis! They will get back to me and let me know when they will be delivery it, the days and times are: May 2nd between 6 pm and 6:30 pm, May 4th (same time) and May 5th (same time). I will stay in touch with you when I hear back from the city. I hope to see you all there. They only dump on the street so help is needed to haul it into the garden!  We don't grow the plants. We grow the soil. The soil grows the plants. familyfoodgarden.com

I will be putting in an order for mulch from Bratt Tree Service on  Monday the 18th, stay tuned for the delivery day!

Seeds from Gardening Matters will be coming soon, around when the compost is delivered.  Please, be aware of the seeds you purchase and make sure they are bee friendly, thank you!  Mark on your calendar May 6-8, Mayfest at the Hampden Park Co-op in St.Paul is having it's plant sale! I volunteer at it, hope to see you at 928 Raymond Avenue, St.Paul!


I would like to thank everyone that was able to attend the first two meetings on April 5th and 12th.  We really worked as a team and got the garden cleaned up! We also emptied out the rain  buckets.  Lets work together with keeping the holes covered unless it's raining to help keep mother natures creatures safe.

I am going to be out of town this weekend for my nephews 3rd birthday party! I'd like to share with you what I have been brain storming, if you looking to garden this weekend. I know we are all feeling the itch!
1.) I started to organize to tomato cages 2.) The shed is becoming more organized, Sunday I will be bring back some nails and ribbon to hang up the tools which will give us more space on the ground to store more inside during the winter months. 3.) Trimming of  last years perennial plants near the front, northwest side along the sidewalk of 15th ave.. 4.) Cutting back the volunteer suckers coming of the fruit trees and the tree near the shed. We need to help out one of the fruit trees for it's pulling its self out of the soil 5.) Picking of the unwanted plants we haven't found a purpose for yet (Weed picking)  6.) Gathering trash, I have a large plastic trash bag in the shed we can fill up before we throw it out 7.) Putting up string around the raspberries and blackberries to help keep them contained.  I am thinking of expanding them with putting in a little walk way with stones in-between the new and old plant.  Any thoughts on that? We would loose a little bit of garden space in the two plots near them.

I have placed the shed key in a TopCare Pain Relief bottle underneath the grill.  We are working on a new idea for hiding the key.


Next week Monday April 18 and Thursday April 21st lets meet in the garden at 6 pm or whenever you can make it, i'll be out there till 8 pm.  I am going to have bags we can use for cleaning up the piles near the compost along with cleaning out the 2 compost bins that are filled with sticks and too large of organic matter.

Please, use all the information the blog has to offer, check out the resources for some useful information. Always feel free to email me any question/concerns you may have or anything you would like me to share on the blog :)  Gardening information, recipes or/and information on seeds/plants/insects.


Warmly,
Lynn

Hello 2016 Gardeners!

Hello 3437 Community Garden Gardeners,

We can smell spring in the air and the Daffodils are peeking out at the U of M Arboretum! Mother Nature may be letting us feel a little of spring next week again with 60 degrees which only makes me want to get my hands in the soil and do a little early gardening!

My name is Lynn Beuning and I will be taking over Adabell’s position of Organizer and Communications Assistant for the 3437 Garden.  I am very excited about having this opportunity to be more involved with the garden. Working with the land was a part of my childhood. I was raised on a beautiful dairy farm, and had a handful of horticulture experiences after moving from the farm. Working at the U of M Landscape Arboretum for two seasons was an incredible experience.  In 2012 I moved to South Minneapolis to further my Early Childhood Montessori Teaching career but gardening never left my heart.  I’ve had a plot with the 3437 Garden for 3 years and I’m excited to be a bigger presence in the garden this season!

I am looking forward to meeting everyone and gardening together soon!  Please get back to me if you are interested in renting a plot to garden this summer of 2016! If you would like a plot again please let me know if you would like the same plot or a different one from last year.

Soiled covered hands,
Lynn

Hola jardineros del 3437 Jardín Comunidad,

¡Podemos oler primavera y los narcisos están saliendo en el Arboreto de la Universidad de Minnesota! ¡Madre Naturaleza está diciéndonos que parece a primavera la semana que viene con 60 grados, que solamente me da ganas de ensuciar mis manos en la tierra temprano!

Me llamo Lynn Beuning y voy a ser encargado del jardín en vez de Adabell. Soy excitado tener la oportunidad de ser más involucrado con el jardín. Trabajando con la tierra siempre era parte de mi vida desde mi infancia. Crese en una vaquería hermosa, y tuve unas experiencias horticulturas después de mudar de la vaquería. Trabajando en el Arboreto de la Universidad de Minnesota para dos años fue una experiencia increíble.   En 2012 mude a South Minneapolis para seguir mi profesión de enseñador de infancia en un colegio de Montessori, pero cuidando a un jardín nunca salió de mi vida. ¡Tuve una parcela en el 3437 Jardín para 3 años ya, y soy excitada de ser una presencia más grande en el jardín este ano!

¡Estoy deseando conocer a todos y cultivar juntos! Por favor contáctame si son interesadas en tener una parcela este verano. Si ya tienen una parcela y quieren seguir en el jardín notificarme si quieres la misma parcela o una diferente.

Manos en la tierra,
Lynn
