Faith & Food Friends,
Fall Clean-up Tomorrow Morning
Tomorrow morning, Sat, Oct 17, at 9:30am, we will gather to do fall clean-up in the garden. Please join us to work, discuss and plan for next year.
This year our garden did not produce as well as in the past. We will need to make some decisions for next year, get the soil tested and do some repair work on the raised beds. Somehow, the south-east bed was damaged. It looks like something pushed out the north-east wood corners, split the wood and pulled the screws completely out. I can't see that happening on its own. I'll send out more info after some of us talk tomorrow morning.
Also, I did not receive any report of squash being delivered and the vines look pretty spent right now. This, too, is a puzzle, as I saw many growing earlier in the season.
It's been another great year to help those in our community who are struggling. Looking forward to next year and an improved yield.
As you enjoy this Homecoming Weekend - GO BLUE!!!
