September Workday Progress

The cool weather was wonderful on Saturday morning as we embarked on our overall mission of weeding, mulching and mowing. The clouds rolled in - the combination of the grill failing and rain pouring down put an early end to our workday.

That said, we got more done by lunchtime than we had hoped. With the help of Sue, Dwayne, Ed, Ben (our garden gnome!), and Larry, we were able to complete the following:

* Weeding around all the shrubs and the orchard.
* Mulching the shrubs, and replacing one of the dying shrubs with a replacement on hand.
* Mowing most of the garden (thanks to Ed!)

We may have another garden workday next month. Stay tuned!
