August 11 & 14 (Winter, sunny, very windy), Spring plan, and new garden time added

And we're back!

First of all, a new working bee time has been added: Wednesdays 10-12pm. So be sure to visit us!

Next, with the help of Sally, we've just finished coming up with a rough plan for next season's plantings and activities.

The garden's got lots of exciting thing planned up : like putting up interpretive signs, moving up the beds to accomodate perrenials, structuring for more efficient water use, expanding the beds, and building habitats for biodiversity (lizard and bird homes!). See below!

Spring plan! Would you look at that! (click to zoom!)

We will be ordering seeds for next season today, and raising some as seedlings (in the little recycled greenhouse facility above) starting next week! So be sure to come and join us.

And watch out for posters about the garden around the campus! Spread the word!
