1/3 planted!

Today, with the help of both a new high school member (Jasmine) and our two best elementary school helpers (Melvin and Torrence) we got all of our plants that are ready for going outside into the soil. That makes about 33% of our total area planted... looking good, looking good :)

Sorry that the pics are not working -- it seems that the SD card on my phone is on the fritz... just imagine six people working at the garden on a beautiful spring day :) On the plus side, it looks like a new addition to the club might be interested in posting to our garden blog after each meeting. Cross your fingers and hope it's true, and we'll see on Thursday eve if it pans out...

Also, our rain catching system is about 80% functional; we caught about 100 gallons of rain during the sprinkling on Monday.

Please continue to keep in touch with us as the vegetation grows to impressive proportions! And, if you have any time, we are open to community volunteers on Tues. and Thursday, from 3:30 to 5:00 PM. 3733 S. Giles. Come on out, and get your hands dirty :) Remember, the first week of June is our first produce date...

all the best,
Mr. Mikulski
