The zinnia flower that I started from seed at our March workshop has finally opened. Hello, beautiful!
Want to Help Put the Garden to Bed for the Winter?
31 OctHostas and asters are still flowering but alas, cold weather is here and its time to winterize the garden.
Join us for small work sessions: Sun Nov 1st from 10am until 130pm; Tues Nov 3rd in the afternoon as well as Sat Nov 7th and Sun Nov 8th. RSVP to cvearthlab@gmail.com, esp if you are bringing youngsters, so we can arrange child-friendly tasks.
