We will be having a group work morning at the Alamo Heights Community Garden this Saturday, August 4 at 9:00 a.m. Our main project will be planting fall tomatoes. We are asking for every adult to bring 1 tomato plant and a bag of compost/mulch as described below. If you can’t come but want to contribute please make a donation to the City of Alamo Heights designated for the garden or leave a well watered tomato plant and bag of compost behind the shed on Friday or early Saturday.
Calvin Finch suggests determinate varieties of tomatoes for fall. Buy a large plant ($3-$5 size, one plant per adult) from the following varieties.
Tycoon
Phoenix

Also each family should bring a 40 pound bag of Gardenville compost/mulch.
These items should be available at the following nurseries.
