Our final meeting of the year will be held at November 28 at St Mikes. Purposes of the meeting: return of garden deposits, choose garden coordinators for next year, review what we did this summer, and brag about our beautiful gardens! More details about the meeting will be forthcoming.
New and prospective garden members are welcome.
The gardens are up, and looking great. Just in time for the town anniversary (we are, after all, a “centennial” garden).
Updates:
We hope to have flowers to fill up the borders this week–stay posted.
At the moment we have a gopher problem, so you may find your plants nibbled. However, the great guys over at the Legion are on it, so the nibblers will soon be gone.
We have someone to get the eaves troughs up this week
The stain is in the church office, so call ahead if you wish to paint your box.

May 29: St Michael and All Angels blessed the community garden as part of our “Messy Sunday” service.
A big thanks to Ashley for moving mulch, even in the rain. You go, girl!

Here is where the garden stands: We have more barrier fabric and mulch, so can finish putting that down, as well as put in the the crushed cement for the path.
We have the rain barrels, so need to determine what we need for gutters, downspouts, attachments, etc. Then we need to put up the gutters, build bases for the barrels, etc.
We are also able to fit in one more box. We have the wood for that, but will need more screws). Then we can get more dirt from the town for that and for a flower bed along the south edge.
We will be getting some stain for the boxes (various colours) and will ask each gardener/s to paint their own.

Is there anything up there you would like to help with? When might you be willing to do that? Let us know!
