Garden update

The garden is coming along great! A planting party is tentatively scheduled for next Saturday, pending the water hook-up. We are still having to haul water, and if we get it all planted before we have easy access to water it will probably be too much to keep up with.

If you have some things that need to go in before next weekend, there is a chalk drawing on the concrete wall that shows where the beds are. There are two vegetable plots, an herb garden and a fruit patch. Please put any plants in the appropriate patch. Pumpkins can go on the hillside under the trees- the kids climb around up there so try to find a protected spot.

The gridded square is where the individual plots are located. I intended to post pictures of all the beds but my camera battery gave out right after I took a picture of the chalk drawing.

The fruit patch has strawberries and watermelon, and there are some blossoms on the strawberry plants. The herb garden has some onions, rosemary and mint, and plenty of room to plant basil, cilantro, and thyme.
There are peas climbing the white fence that overlooks the ambulance bay, and a few veggies in both of the veggie patches.

Please put things away when you were done; I was over there today and the wagon was overturned down the hill by the dorms.
