Dundee Community Garden Events

Hello Dundee Community Gardeners and Friends,

Please put these Dundee Community Garden Events on your Calendar:

Dundee Spring Fling at Dundee Community Garden. Sat. May 22, 10-12   Tie-Dye and Seed Planting Activities!  We plan to have a seed planting activity for children at the garden, and a master gardener available to answer all your gardening questions.  Garden member Amanda Leet will be leading tie-dying at the garden for $1.  You can dye a  DCG t-shirt-- we'll be selling them for $10.  And we'll be selling our Chico bags as a fundraiser.

Also on May 22, you can hear Andrew's Ave. (the band that lives in the yellow house next to the garden, and lets us use their water AT NO CHARGE) before they move out of state!  They will be playing from 8:30-9:30 at the Arts for All Benefit Concert, which is from 4-10 p.m. at Stinson Park in Aksarben Village (67th & W. Center Road).   More info at http://www.artsforallinc.com/

Dundee Community Garden Ice Cream Social Sun. June 13, 3-5 p.m. at the garden.  $1 donation requested. Lots of ice cream w/ toppings, root beer floats, friendship, and a chance for new members to paint their "plot signs."

Compost: Coffee Grounds are great compost for garden soil, working well as a mulch or fertilizer.  You can get used coffee grounds for free at Blue Line or any Starbucks-- just ask!
