February Farm Work Day!
As March is wrapping up, the signs of spring are becoming ever more obvious. This past friday we had a good crew of 20 or so people show up on an absolutely gorgeous sunny day to help improve our farm at our monthly farm work day! Those who attended enjoyed the weather while they worked and were treated with a surplus of fresh bagels and food.
Along with the never-ending weeding, several other improvements were made. A fair amount of time was spent preparing our new E beds for spring. Volunteers added dirt to build up existing beds ,
and a full crop of potatoes were planted in one of the new beds as well.
Compost was collected from the ends of beds and we may have enough to start our next pile.
We also ran out a drip irrigation line to some new native plants by the washbasin
Even though 20 people is a decent turnout, especially for this time of year, we feel that we could have gotten a few more participants of the Networking group had been more aggressive with their advertising strategies. Hopefully this group won’t slack off in other management jobs they continue on to.
