Wheelbarrows and several inches of mud made for a serious workout. The group of troopers yesterday was able to mound dirt in each of the raised beds and finish and fill the strawberry beds. A couple of boys in the neighborhood even came by to help.
Many thanks to the volunteers on a chilly Saturday morning: Ed and Linda, Gail, Cortez, Dwayne, Ben, Chase and the friends shown in one of the pictures above. A good portion of the mud in the garden made it home with each of us. (shoes, boots, gloves, socks, pants, hair... you name it!)
Next Saturday a group of Boy Scouts is going to meet us at the garden at 9:00am to assist in moving mulch between the beds. That will help in controlling the slip-n-slide Mother Nature has so graciously provided.
Don't forget about the garden meeting at the Corner Coffee House this Thursday evening (March 18th). Larry will be sending a reminder to everyone. Don't miss the kick-off to this fun-filled planting season!
