May 16, Need Watering Help
|
|
Happy Spring (finally)!
Roger, my kids and I spend the morning out at the garden preparing boxes,
weeding and moving some free mulch Roger aquired. And what a beautiful day! I
was so happy to see several of the family boxes already planted! What fun! I
look forward to seeing what everyone is growing this summer!
Steve Skifton put some water in our tank last week, (THANKS!!), so we have
water for planting, and Mr. Botcher from the city recycling center was kind
enough to turn over the leaf mulch pile with his bobcat this morning. Whew! That
saved us days of work with a pitchfork!! 
We're supposed to get rain tomorrow, which will be nice, but the
strawberries and peas already planted will need to be watered by Sunday. Even
though more rain is forecast, sometimes it doesn't amount to much. Is anyone
available to check on and possibly water the few things Saturday and/or Sunday?
(I have triathlon on Saturday and a graduation in Iowa on Sunday).
The next big day is planting with the 2nd graders, currently scheduled for
Wednesday, May 22nd, with a rain date of Friday the 24th. We've moved the time
to the morning, from approximately 9 am until 11 am. I already have commitments
from two folks to help out, but I could always use another two to help direct
the planting groups If anyone is available on Wednesday from about 9 - 11 am
and would like to help out, let me know!
Hope you all are enjoying the wonderful season of sun!
