Busy Day at Roots of Peace

Hello All! Another busy day in the garden. We started the day in the garden with two big shipments of lumber and supplies. It was a great feeling to see all our price bargaining pay off in the form of wood, a shed, landscaping fabric and nails. After the shipments were unloaded and the shed quickly assembled community members arrived for our first workshop of the season. The workshop was about gardening in the three seasons of New York and provided us with some new knowledge and new connections in the community. Both important things. Later in the evening we returned to the garden to assemble some raised beds with the help of two of Margaret's close friends from Bates College. By the end of the night we had all the cuts made and seven beds assembled. Thirteen to go!
