How Our Garden Grows!




The community garden has sprouted again with new folks taking plots this spring. It is fascinating to see the different methods employed in the new gardens...

Will this guy scare off the crows that plucked out the corn seedlings last summer?

Beans and corn planted together- the vines will climb the corn stalks.

Different weed barriers this year. Carpet does the job here.

Purchased landscape fabric is a good choice.
Others are using newspaper and/or cardboard under hay mulch.


Raised beds are great when the soil gets soggy from excess rain.
