It's Getting Warmer...

We are getting very excited about this gardening season, and today it feels like seedlings may start pushing their little heads through the soil, if they haven't already. 

One of our Master Gardeners in the garden this weekend noticed a plotholder had cleaned their plot but put the refuse material over the fence instead of bringing it to the compost.  In addition, the plotholder cleaned the border and removed plants from there, including some peas or sweet peas that someone had sowed.  The Master Gardener felt it was obvious that something was growing there.

We all work hard to grow plants from seed and plant carefully and make our garden a wonderful place.  So a few things to remember as we start to garden:
  1. Please garden only your own plot.
  2. Please make sure to compost any organic materials from your plot in our compost bin (if you're not sure how to do this, please ask a Master Gardener, or leave your materials to be composted very neatly next to the compost bin).  Don't put anything over the fence or anywhere else in the garden area.  We will talk more about composting on our Breakfast in Bed day.
  3. Please make sure to remove all garbage from your plot area before you leave.  Key word: community.  This is a group effort.  We do not have receptacles for garbage--it must be removed from the garden area completely.
  4. If you have interest in working on the borders or community circle, please talk to one of our Master Gardeners, or someone on the Gardening Committee, before digging, planting, or weeding.  We will also talk about this more on our Breakfast in Bed day.
  5. If you are working on the borders or community circle, please don't dig something up unless you are absolutely sure you know what it is.
  6. If you have questions on what you can and can't plant, what you can and can't do, or just want a refresher on the rules, please refer to the Rules and Guidelines page, which also refers to our process for complaints, infractions, etc.
