Dear Friends:
As always, enduring gratitude to you all for being the turbo engine that keeps the garden rocking and rolling.
Wow, what we can accomplish working together! What a blessing. We are grateful to you all and hope you enjoy and value your time at the garden. Please never hesitate to reach out to me ( or any garden staff) if you have any comments, ideas or concerns, we want to hear from you!
This past week we sorted, stacked and stored potatoes, we also donated a lot (100's of pounds) to local food banks, missions and feeding ministries. In case you missed the tally, it was 2650 lbs of potatoes!
We planted fall crops where the potatoes were and continued to harvest lots of squash, zucchini and tomatoes.
We still have carrots, beets, tomatoes, squash to share, pintos to harvest and of course, potatoes...!!
This coming garden week we will weed and mound the sweet potatoes and prune tomatoes and continue weeding and harvesting as needed.
Volunteer times are: Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, THursday 9-12 and Tues and Thurs 4:00- 7:30. If those times are not convenient for you, fear not, just shoot me a message and we'll work it out.
