Opening Weekend 2015

Hello gardeners! Our 2015 growing season kicks off this weekend. Our official opening celebration (perhaps too formal a word for this very informal gathering) will be held from 9am-3pm on Saturday, April 25. If you can, stop by to get your hands dirty! Drinks and donuts will be available during this time, along with a fresh supply of mulch. Please, as soon as you can, refresh the mulch on all four sides of your bed, and fill in any low spots. The mulch is so important to keeping our garden neat and our paths free of weeds.

Also available on April 25 will be the sign up sheets for work crews. If you haven't had a chance to join a team yet, please sign up for one. Cooperation on the hard work of keeping the garden going is crucial to the garden's success! We hope that the Garden is a good way to meet friends while you grow delicious food, and the work crews are a great way to meet new people.

Invite a friend to help you wake up your bed--we do still have some vacant plots this season, so spread the word. We are working with Foodlink once again to make sure that the cost of a bed isn't a hurdle for families in need of healthy produce.

Of course, you are always welcome to garden during times that are appropriate for the garden's neighborhood location. And feel free to share the image below on your Facebook or other social networks. Happy gardening!
