Spectrum – Church Garden Update
As my daughter put it, the gardens have become a “Free Pantry for the animals” – a positive spin on the struggles we have with keeping plants from getting eaten. However, if you are interested in seeing the garden and chatting about it, I will plan on being outside this coming Sunday, July 20, at around 9:30am. Feel free to join me!
Since many people have asked, here are a few things I could use help with:
– volunteers to water/check the gardens on Saturdays or Sundays
– people to weed the mulched area (this does not need to be scheduled, it can be anytime)
– help with a planting schedule to try for a fall harvest in some of the beds that have been dined at by the deer
You can chat with me at the garden or email me at rebecca.beneditz@gmail.com
NVC Practice Group meets on Wednesday, July 23, from 6:00 – 7:30 pm.
