The Fall Garden is looking great, we have lots of tasty fresh vegetables growing along with hot peppers and basil from the summer crop. I’d like to say thank you to Eagle Scout candidate Hamlet and other scouts for planning and constructing a walking path through the garden. The path is a great addition and provides an excellent surface for friends and neighbors to enjoy the garden.
We are planning a Full Moon potluck this Thursday, November 10 at the garden starting between 6-6:30 pm. This is a great opportunity to meet your neighbors, visit your community garden and get involved.
As always, we welcome everyone’s participation in the garden and there is always something we need help with. A few examples of tasks we need assistance with;
- We are looking for someone interested in working with our composting and picking up used coffee grounds from Starbucks for our compost bins
- Watering our fruit orchard, this involves hand watering a few times a week
- Help with weeding around the fruit trees and around our planting beds
- Harvesting and enjoying the vegetables
- We are always looking for donations, specifically we need about 5 cubic yards of organic compost, gardening hand tools, and organic fertilizer
- Cash and check donations are always welcome – please take your donation to City Hall payable to the City of Alamo Heights with a memo indicating “Community Garden”
If you have questions on how you can participate please contact Karla at karlatoye@gmail.com, Linda at linda.hallstead@gmail.com , or me at info@ahgarden.org
