Maintenance day Saturday Nov. 2nd 1:30-4pm

Hello gardeners,
 
Just a reminder of our fall cleanup this Saturday, Nov. 2nd from 1:30-4pm at the garden, 780 McEvoy st. This cleanup is the last one scheduled for the year.
 
The goal is to have all plots put to bed for the winter.  However, if you have usable plants in your plot that you would like to keep in or are unable to clear your plot out yourself please contact me at madeleineberrevoets@gmail.com.
 
We will need help clearing out the community beds as well as clearing up the pathways. Even if your plot has been put to bed for the season please consider coming out to help others around the garden.
 
Hope to see you all one more time before the snow starts to fall!

p.s If you want to fill your day with garden related stuff The Greener Village is hosting a workshop on composting. See below for details.
 
"Alison Juta will be exploring composting in her upcoming workshop "Introduction to Backyard Composting". This workshop will look at the various forms of composting, including leaf composting and the open 3-bin system. Weather permitting, there will be a hands-on demonstration. This is an excellent opportunity to bring your questions and ideas to Alison, who has a range of composting and organic gardening experience. This workshop is funded by the Environmental Trust Fund and is free to all and will be held on November 2nd from 10:00AM to 12:30PM at Greener Village."
