Garden Tidying-Up Meeting this Tuesday @ 6PM!!

It looks like every plot is flourishing this year!! We had a garden meeting a few weeks ago but nobody showed so only a little bit got done. No worries, we're having another meeting this coming Tuesday, August 11th at 6PM. 

We're mainly going to clean up the garden between plots and in the front around the first few plots on the street side of the garden.

Please email 3437garden@gmail.com or post on this blog letting us know if you will be able to attend. 

Thanks as always, and happy gardening!

Garden Day This Thursday, July 23rd @ 5:30PM!!!

Hi everyone!

Hopefully y'all have been functioning in the hot hot heat we've had lately! I think the rain has worked in our favor because the garden is looking full and wonderful!! It's wedding season so I've been out of town a lot so we haven't held a garden meeting in a while, for which I apologize. :(

But not to worry, we'll have a meeting this Thursday, July 23rd at 5:30 pm. Here are a few things that we will tackle at this meeting:

  • Weeding between plots and in the back area
  • Turn compost if needed
  • Clean up debris from the recent storm
It doesn't look like a long list, but the more hands the better! Some of those weeds are well established so we'll have to use our brute strength to get some of those suckers outta there! Please respond to this blog post ASAP to let us know if you will be able to attend. 

See you all Thursday!!

We Have Water!!

Hello gardeners!

I just wanted to let everyone know the water has been turned on in the garden! I recently filled the rain barrels. Whenever you go to the garden check the water to see if it needs to be topped off at all. The faucet for the hose in on the south front end of the apartment building on the north side of the garden (just follow the stepping stones). The spigot is kept on a hot pink zip-tie in a shoebox in the shed. Please use the watering cans to water to your plots instead of the hose itself.

If anyone has any problems with the water please let us know!
