Bed assignments and preperation


Today in gardening we capitalized on the 53 degree weather and assigned our beds for the season. First step: Weeding and Turning over. Second Step: Tagro Additive. Third Step: Returning Over. This is called DOUBLE DIGGING!

Tagro Soil Remediation


Today we added a bunch of Tagro to our soil and turned it over so that we could add some nutrients to our soil. We have all the beds in the "Giving Garden" circle ready for planting and all we need is some baby!

First Work Day Turning Soil


Today was our first work day and the sun came out for a brief moment to give us a happy and healthy work day preparing our giving garden plots. We pulled weeds, turned the soil and practiced getting ready to work on our private group beds. GREAT DAY!
