All of the plants look beautiful and the straw is keeping the weeds at bay. The soil quality is reflected in the plant growth. The sections of the garden beds where green manure was planted over the winter has really beautiful soil; other parts of the garden beds, not so much! The front lawn was tilled then fertilizer was added to prepare the soil for raised beds.
Monday, June 22nd at 5pm compost will be added to the tilled soil. Later that evening the beds will be shaped and ready for veggies! What an amazing process. Needless to say, volunteers are needed to help spread compost. Bring shovels, wheel barrels, and gloves. These beds will be producing a lot of veggies that can be passed on to students in the fall. Students from Indianola Informal School will also have the opportunity to visit the garden and pick their own snacks.
Good Work!

I can bring a wheel barrel, but I can't make it until 6:00. If you need it before then, you can stop by my house, its out back on the patio. (1216 Dennison) Kim E.
