Memorial day is a time of remembrance but can also be downtime to enjoy with friends and family. If either or both of those is scarce, come to your community garden and make your own. Carlos (bbq chef extraordinaire) does great burgers, brats and dogs as well as portabellas and corn on the cob. On…

Sorry it’s been so long since there’s been an update! Been a busy couple of months. Cool season at the garden is my favorite garden time. Mosquitoes and ants are minimal and it is not as uncomfortable. Some winter crops have been started already. Kale, arugula, mustard, lettuce, spinach, radishes, beets, onions, carrots, kohlrabi, broccoli,…

A beautiful yellow watermelon, cucumber salad and chimichurri sauce came from the garden. George’s home made ice cream, a peanut butter and fudge cake as well as coca cola cake were some…

Many of us worked on extending the compost bin that is made from salvaged cement blocks (thanks Pam!). Bhavana sprayed fertilizer on seedlings which will happily gobble it up. Tammy and Kelly inventoried…

Only the bravest, hardiest gardeners came today. It was around 40* at 10:00 and windy. Unfortunately the wind was too strong for a warming fire. To keep warm Maggie, Pam, George, William and I mulched the blackberry area and put compost in rows where future beans, okra, tomatoes, peppers and cut flowers are expected. Pam, Carlos…
