Getting down to business, I just want everyone to be aware of the upcoming work bees. These are a great chance to make a dent in your 16 hours of "communal service" in the garden (volunteer work). Our first work bee will be this coming Saturday from 9-3pm. You can come for part of it or all of it, the choice is yours. We have a mountain of preseason tasks to deal with so naturally the more hands we have the easier the work will be. Some of the things we will be trying to conquer include:
- oiling the new beds
- general cleanup
- sorting the compost pile
- gopher proofing in the Craig garden
- cleaning and organizing the shed
- lining and filling the new beds - this is a large task and I'm not sure I'll be prepared material wise but I might be, so be prepared...
The Wednesday night work bee will start next week. These start at 6pm and go to 8pm. Once school is out and my time is a bit more my own, I will likely bump the time back to 7-9pm.
There will be one more Saturday work bee on May 19th, 9-3pm.
That's it for now. Remember to enter your email address in the space over on the right hand side of the page to ensure you get the blog posts.
See you Saturday!
