The Garden of Hope (corner of Tulip and Curry St) is ramping up for the growing season. There are always things to be done, both in our FPCY section and in the greater garden. Janet Morra is the garden coordinator and she is there every Saturday from 9:30-2, unless it is pouring rain. She is often there on Thursday too.

There are piles of dirt and wood chips at the end of Willow Park in the parking area which can be moved to the garden area to prepare the beds for planting. Right now in the FPCY section we have several rows of peas that were planted last month. The current need is placing cardboard and wood chips down between the rows to reduce the grass mowing though the summer. A big work weekend and planting weekend will be announced once it is set.

See some photos of what’s happening in the Garden now.

Any volunteer is welcome to text me anytime (Dawna Dennis) if they need direction or want to arrange a time to work together.
