Dundee Community Garden This Week

Hello DCG Members and Friends,

LAST HARVEST NIGHT THIS WED. AT 6:00 p.m.  Please join us if you can help pick produce for the Underwood Tower.  We'll pick everything we can  before cleaning out the plots this weekend.  

FALL CLEAN-UP   Sun. Oct. 16,  1-4 p.m.  We will need lots of help digging up the sweet potatoes and cleaning out the community beds, so bring shovels and garden tools for the fall clean-up.  You'll also want to bring a yard waste bag for cleaning out your own plot.  We plan to have a trailer there to collect the yard waste bags.  

Note: if you clean out your own plot before Oct. 16, leave the yard waste bag in your plot and we'll load it on the trailer on Oct. 16.  If you clean out your plot after Oct. 16, you will need to dispose of your own yard waste bag.

We will also have surveys at the garden so you can give us your feedback on how this season went for you.

Please have all plots cleaned out by Nov. 1.

CANNA BULBS:  We will also need volunteers to help store the canna bulbs over the winter.  

MAYOR MAKING DUNDEE AWARD PRESENTATION WED. 10:30 a.m.    Mayor Jim Suttle and Bruce Knight of the national American Planning Association will be giving neighborhood representatives the official award for "Great Places in American Neighborhoods" on Wednesday, October 12th at 10:30 a.m. in front of the Dundee Clock at 50th & Underwood.  Our Dundee Community Garden is a part of the reason our neighborhood is getting this award!
