Hello Dundee Community Gardeners,
SPECIAL THANKS to Vince Huebert for taking charge of the sweet potato project-- we harvested at least 300 pounds yesterday-- and to Jeff Beiermann and Mary Lincoln for keeping up with the lawn mowing all summer!
PLOT RENEWAL FOR CURRENT MEMBERS: If you wish to renew your plot for 2010, please fill out the attached Plot Reservation Form, and mail it with your check to hold a spot for 2011. Renewals should be mailed to our treasurer, Deb Hickman, at 1227 N. 53rd St., Omaha, NE, 68132. Renewal will be accepted until March 1, 2011. After that, we'll start on our waiting list.
IF YOU DO NOT PLAN TO CONTINUE WITH US NEXT YEAR, please let us know that also as it helps with our planning.
NEED YOUR FEEDBACK: Also, all members, whether or not you plan to garden with us next year, are asked to fill out an end-of-year survey (attached) to give us your feedback and suggestions. You can mail it in with your renewal, or simply e-mail your comments back to me. We'd like to get the surveys returned within the next week or so please.
PLOTS MUST BE CLEANED OUT before you can sign up for a plot for the 2011 season! Please bag all yard waste from your plot, take it home with you, and set it out with your household yard waste. (If you live in an apartment, just place it with a neighbor's yard waste.) Please have all plots cleaned out by Nov. 1.

THANK YOU to everyone who helped with the fall clean-up yesterday. We can measure the success of our 2010 growing season in many ways, including by noting that we had two times more yard waste this year than last year at our fall clean-up! And we donated over twice as much food to Together Inc.'s food pantry this year as last year. Last year we donated just over 300 pounds to Together; as of today, we've donated over 600 pounds of produce to Together in 2010! A big chunk of the 600 pounds is the 190 pounds donated this morning, which were mostly sweet potatoes... along with some squash, peppers, beans, etc.
