Taking advantage of the unusually warm weather in November a great group of volunteers gathered early, ready for the tasks of the day. As a group we were able to pour the concrete into the mold for the path approach and sidewalk, pour the concrete for the water splash pad, and plant the six grape vines. Three of the grape vines are Chardonel grapes for community garden wine-making. :-) The other three are seedless eating varieties: Interlaken, Canadice, and Reliance. We may get a small crop next year, but the year after should be very nice!
A special thanks to all of the hard workers today: Ed, Linda, Dwayne, Brian, Cliff, Julia, Randy, and last but not least Ben for cleaning out the wheelbarrows. Also thanks to Larry for making two kinds of chili for lunch: regular and vegetarian.
It was a perfect day to gather with friends and neighbors in OFW's community garden. We're really looking forward to next spring when full-scale planting will take place!
