Some of the youth group helped me weed and replant the 3 raised beds we have. Thanks Caitlyn and Lauren!
A couple guys have weed wacked and ran the rototiller and shoveled for us - thanks!
I have lots of plants ready to go in the ground, need lots of advice on planting fruit trees and bushes to get a continual harvest - and lots of seedlings started for late season growing at home. We should have lots of tomatoes and squash - right now the yellow crookneck is coming along and young tomatoes growing. We hope to have flowers and veggies in ever-increasing amounts to give to food pantry folks.
The deer have eaten some seedlings, so need to keep protecting them and watering and weeding - hopefully it will get easier as we get the infrastructure in place with the watering system.
Looking for any help weeding, watering and planting, building, digging etc. that anyone can give. I am hoping to try some experimental beds in grass clippings, and welcome any donations to our new compost pit - bring your leaves for us, grass clippings, vegetables etc. to compost! Have to rebuild the soil from scratch.
If you would like to adopt a tomato plant and grow some for the food pantry, that would be great! Look for more info to come at church as I try to get the word out on what we're trying to do here.
I welcome ideas and help of any kind!!
