Hello Dundee Community Gardeners,
Our Harvest Pot-Luck party is this Saturday, Sept. 19, 3-5 p.m. All garden members and friends of the garden are invited!
Please bring a dish to share (preferably one using produce from the garden), your own beverage, and a folding chair. This is most of all a time to socialize, for kids to play in the teepee, and for all of us to enjoy being in the beautiful garden we have created.
Additionally,
*We will be selling pumpkins from the pumpkin patch
*We will have chico bags for sale for $5
*We will be taking orders for Dundee Community Garden t-shirts
*We will have our "End of Year Survey/ Reserve a Plot for 2010" forms. Plots next year will be $20. To reserve your same plot, you will need to sign up, pay, clean up your plot, and help clean up the community beds. We'll be having a clean-up party on Sunday Oct. 18.
Important note: For those of you who are starting to clean up your own plots now, we'll be asking you to pull up everything except perennials. Most things can go in our compost bins, but PLEASE DO NOT PUT TOMATO PLANTS IN THE COMPOST! Also the squash, pumpkin, any any other plants that show signs of blight of fungus cannot go in our compost bins. These plants should go in the brown paper composting bags for the city to pick up. The city's site will get hot enough that these plants can be composted there. We're planning to get a truckload of Oma-grow delivered in October for people to dig into their plots. Watch for more details later.
Hope to see lots of gardeners on Saturday,
Mary
