The past two days have been just as busy as the first! We're getting to know and love our garden space through weeding, raking, and other prep work. Yesterday, we started to plan for a recycled rain water collection system that will be placed in the garden to allow a close, renewable source of clean water to give to thirsty plants. We're also looking into building a compost bin to make good use of our extra weeds, sticks, table scraps, and garden leftovers, to provide an all-natural fertilizer for the garden.
It looks like our first flowers will be transplanted from our greenhouse in New Jersey to the garden on Friday, just in time for the Ribbon Cutting Ceremony on Saturday. In the mean time, we're hoping to begin building raised beds next week, so let's hope this heat wave cools down a bit!
Hope to see you on Saturday,
Margaret
