New Garden Spot

Sheryl McGlochlin has created a community garden group and is using our "weed patch" to grow a wonderful garden. There will be corn in our patch and other veggies in other gardens that we will be able to partake of. She had a group out the other night digging up the weeds and hand tilling the ground. She said the plot should be ready to plant this Saturday. All we have to wait for is the weather. People come from all around to participate. They get a punch card and have to contribute 25 hours of labor. The harvest is then shared. Our contribution is the ground and water. I am very excited. I have tried to grow a garden each year, and then lose interest around the end of July when it is too hot. It will be a fantastic thing to watch grow and it will look like we are very ambitious (it's all about image!) Pictures will soon follow!
