Weeds, weeds, weeds... You get the idea! With the garden mowed and trimmed yesterday, 9 of us took to clearing weeds from the walking paths today. It was sweaty, dirty work, but we got a lot done. Weeding around the pollinator bed was especially hard today. Four weeks ago, our gardener who took care of that bed passed away. Clinton will be missed for his expert green thumb, his wonderful stories about growing up on a farm with seven siblings and his delicious cooking. We are all better people for knowing him.
Instead of a potluck in the heat, several of us headed to the Farmers Market for the last few minutes to grab something good to eat and something cold to drink. We're talking about potentially moving our garden work days to accommodate more of our gardeners and to get out of the blazing summer sun in July and August. Whatever we decide, we'll continue to grow delicious veggies, fruits and friendships. Clinton would like that plan.
