Eight garden beds are built and in place! Thank you to Joe Fedorko for 3 hours in the cold and damp today building perfectly straight beds for our Salad Gardens.
A big thanks to the Cring family for donating the wood we used today. Corry Lawler has also donated some boards for the spring to finish the side beds.
Mrs. Robbins brought fabulous manure. My friends Karen and Phil brought hay and apple sludge. Steve Flynn is bringing spent grain from the brewpub. The Village crew brought dirt and leaves, and Kris Dimmick spent 3 hours helping mow those leaves, not to mention bringing me the mowers and the gas.
The guys at the school have helped hammer in posts and move big piles of leaves. The Miller women helped shovel and cart dirt. Carmel and Nicki hustled rotting jack o lanterns and brought coffee grounds. Sharon Murray raked and shovelled one day and turned the chaos into piles and paths.
We will be looking for more garden fairies (people who make wishes come true!) and garden gnomes (people who will help watch over the garden) in the future. Let me know if you are interested in becoming a 4-H leader or helping with the garden in any way.
