Many thanks to Enid Farber for capturing spring in the garden! Scores more of her photos on our new website gallery page.
On Earth Day this year, Saturday April 22, we will be having our Spring cleaning and soil amendment delivery day from 9am to 3pm.
We especially need bodies for the delivery between 10 and 11, as we unload 50 pound bags tag-team style from the truck to the street. there will be a total of about 5.75 tons of soil that we need to unload quickly. This is for the young and strong, we have had back strains from this work in the past, so caution is very important.
We will also be cleaning all of the paths, raking the grass and paths, organizing the shed, and turning over the compost.
