Can you help us get ready to plant?

Volunteers are helping to get the edible garden ready for fall planting. Today three 5th grade girls sorted seeds. In the next two weeks we will be lining the raised beds to keep out weeds and we'll also be adding some new soil and compost.

In the next two weeks, volunteers are needed for the following tasks: adding weed barriers to the beds this requires digging down 12-18",  adding new compost and soil, planting flowers in the butterfly garden and replacing a broken removable panel in one of the beds.

Also, we'll start fall garden lessons and harvest cooking lessons the last week of September. Please let your teacher/s know if you'd like to help with your child's class.

Our harvest cooking lessons will be courtesy of Gelson's Markets and Gibson International Realty.

Please let me know if you'd like to help with general gardening, watering, teaching and/or cooking. I can be reached at info@palisadescares.org.

Thanks,
Ms. Marie
