It has been a great couple of weeks in the garden! We finished harvesting 514 pounds of tomatoes as part of our research project with OSU. We also finished up our cucumber, squash and pepper harvests. At current count, we have grown 1318.5 pounds of produce this year! We fixed up the fairy garden and planted a cover crop in the food forest. We have so much more to do, though! This week, we will work to get our potatoes harvested and our garlic planted. In addition, we are hosting a garden clean up day on October 24th from 9 a.m. to noon! Volunteers are needed to clean up the urban agriculture beds, weed and mulch the labyrinth and other clean up projects. No need to RSVP, just show up and help!
Phyte Club meets on Mondays after school from 3:15 - 4:15, and students can work on projects during their open blocks at school. Everyone is welcome! Ask Monica and she will help you get connected.
