BEE HIVE

The garden has a very happy bee hive in the fenced in area. Edie is our bee keeper and she is training a few others, Brian one of our veggie gardeners, also works with Edie.She is at the hive a couple times a week in the morning. We are planning a Meet the Bee Keeper day at the garden some time in July. We'll open the hive and educated people about the importance of bees. Our own Edna White Honey will be for sale that day.

May Update on Raised Beds

Raised Veggie Beds

The garden has no plots left at this time. We are planning on building two more raised beds because of all the interest. The plots are approximately 4x4. Cost is 25.00 per plot for the summer.

Watering the beds and weeding is a group effort with a calendar and this blog to be used for organization.

Let me know if you're interested. We need people who can put the water on early on the veggies only 6-7 am. When its cooking outside we need it watered again in the evening.

weeds

Remember that a weed is just a plant that is out of place, I think we all have to calm down about the dandelions. Because of the veggies being planted at Edna White most of the community volunteers have agreed that chemicals are not the way to go.

 I will have Jack Pizzo make a visit. He designed the seeded area a will make recommendations about the plants coming up.
