End of Summer Garden Update

We're looking for some help: someone to paint a "Welcome" sign for the garden that we can attach to one of the gates; some people to install weed cloth or hardware cloth in one or two of the beds (and move soil to make this possible; assistance in organizing the shed. Ms. Marie will be in the garden on Friday, August 14 at 9 am. Contact her re helping then or one day when school has started.

What's growing in the garden: the salsa garden and the 3 Sisters Garden have been replanted. We should have some vegetables to harvest in a month or so. Lemon verbena is growing in a bag on the gate and milkweed is doing well in the butterfly garden. We'll be planting some seedlings in the butterfly garden as most plants there died over the summer.

Most of the plants in the Native American Garden are doing well with their once a week watering. The hummingbird sage is especially happy!

I look forward to seeing the kids soon!
