Friday PM Planting
23 JulI’m hoping to plant some beans, as well as cucumbers, on Friday. Ideally, we will hold one planting session at 4pm and another at 6:30pm, depending on weather and interest. Please send a note to cvearthlab@gmail.com if you would like to participate!
Each session will be brief and last no more than 20 minutes.
Thanks, — Denise
Scenes From Garden Thurs am, After the Storm
23 JulGarden looks good! I picked up some tomatoes that had fallen — pls do this if you can. This tomato will ripen on my window sill — and it won’t rot on the soil and attract pests.
See pics below, including pink echinacea (aka cone flowers), cucumber vine sprouts, and one of the first black eyed susan flowers to open.
