Mulch and Lumber- Hooray!

Happy Monday, garden followers!

Following the success of the ribbon cutting ceremony on Saturday, Merry and I arrived at the garden this morning with a new sense of energy and pride. Today, we finished weeding the major pathways between the raised bed spaces, although we know that weeding is a job that will never be finished. We began mulching, which is a process we are both very excited to continue. It's amazing how much the space has evolved in the past 10 days, and how much more positive change is to come. We're receiving a shipment of lumber on Wednesday from Green Thumb that will be used to build raised beds, and so we are happily assembling a team of volunteers who are interested in some fun construction. Once the beds are constructed and the soil and compost delivered, the seedlings can finally emerge from their greenhouse home and into the ground in which they belong!

Until then,
Margaret
