Garden work party - 5/21/23
Portland Nursery has donated some native plants to the vegetable garden thanks to the 5th graders writing letters, and Ms. Jane will be purchasing some more with the money from our neighbor Anne's plant sale! We need to get new areas on the north and south side of the garden ready. This entails moving compost piles around, placing layers of newspaper over the berms we make to prevent weeds from growing, and then spreading a little more compost on top of the newspaper. In addition, the rain gardens in the back courtyard need a little work, especially before Owl Fest!.
If anyone has access to a small chipper/shredder, it would really help in reducing the size of all the grapevines and old sunflower stalks. Ms. Jane had planned to move them to the north end and then cover them with compost, but it looks as if there might be too many for the area if we don't cut them into smaller pieces.
WHERE: Vernon Garden
WHEN: Sunday, May 21st
TIME: 10:00am - 12:00pm
Please join us!
