Dundee Community Garden This Week: 30 August

Hello Dundee Community Gardeners and Friends,

Did you see our giant carrot in the Dundee Day Parade?  Thanks to everyone who donated produce for our Dundee Day Sale.  We made about $170 by selling produce and flowers.  And great job Tancy and Vince on some impressive Chico bag sales.  Anyone with photos from the parade, please post them on our website at http://www.dundeegarden.org/, or on our facebook page!

NEXT HARVEST NIGHT THIS MONDAY AT 7: We're planning to finally get those picnic tables sanded and varnished, and we can use some extra help with that! As always, bring gloves, scissors, and other gardening tools to help with harvesting and weeding.  We'll be harvesting for Together, Inc.'s food pantry.

VOLUNTEER HOURS CHART: We're planning to post a volunteer hours chart at the garden this week. The chart is based on the hours that have been recorded so far in our work-night notebook.  If you've volunteered some hours at other times, that have not been recorded in the notebook, you can update the chart to reflect your hours.  If you want to volunteer at a time other than a work night, the beds can always use weeding and dead-heading. Each garden member is expected to contribute eight hours working in the community plots over the course of the gardening season.  

EXTRA PRODUCE ALWAYS ACCEPTED FOR THE FOOD PANTRY!  Let us know if we can pick from your plot if you're not coming to the harvest night!  And if you have produce that is neglected and very ripe, we'll go ahead and add it to our food pantry box! 

SAVE THESE DATES: 
Sunday Sept. 26, 3-5 p.m.  Fall Harvest Party and Pot-Luck

Sunday Oct. 17, 1-4 p.m.  Fall Clean-Up
