Season Opening
Hi everyone,
What a great turnout we had on Saturday for our annual season opening! A huge Thank You to our Event Committee -Anne Kirschman, Kathy Williams, Laurie Christiana, Ann Shor, and Carol Wasserman- for organizing a wonderful Potluck lunch! Another huge THANK YOU to Ayres Souza for organizing what has now become our annual roto-tilling!! And another huge thank you to Lisa Guyot for a great presentation about our composting system that she has been organizing for the past year.
Recipes!!! We had some incredible dishes brought in for the potluck lunch. I’d love to collect any recipes that people are willing to share so that we can post them on our website.
All in all, about 20 people showed up, beds were tilled and weeded, compost was spread and mulch laid on top to keep the weeds down, bunny excluding fences erected… A great team effort from folks helping each other throughout!
Sad you missed it? Don’t worry, we are planning three more Garden Gatherings throughout the season – the next one coming up in early June, stay tuned!
Thank you to everyone who turned out for the day!
Happy spring and happy gardening!
Hannah, Anne, Ayres, Lisa, Carl, Sandy, and Jim

Reminder!!! April 2nd, Season Opening event at the Community Garden!
Hi everyone,
Just a quick reminder that our first event of the season is coming up this Saturday and it will be our season opening PotLuck lunch! Please see details below!
Please bring something to share during our potluck lunch! We will provide utensils and paper plants/napkins.
Also, this is our last call for folks to sign up to have their plots roto tilled. You must be present for tilling and you must have the garden clear of debris and large root systems from the previous year. Our morning slots are fairly full, but there is still room in the 11am-1pm and 1-2pm slots. Please click on the following link and use this form to sign up for Roto Tilling: https://forms.gle/Ah2ZQJvEPPwjgCZH8
Looking forward to seeing many of you on Saturday!
Sincerely,
Your humble steering committee!
