Welcome to the weekly update!
I’m a little busy/tired today so keeping it brief.
This last week in the garden I took out all the tomato and melon plants. Replaced them with brassica seedlings. Hopefully the harvested tomatoes turn red eventually. The peas and oats that were sown in the spiral garden next to the house have sprouted, thankfully not too many turkeys got to the seeds. Hopefully the don’t go for the tasty sprouts.
Fighting the deer, they have been winning. I started to rearrange the electric fence today to try and prevent them a little more. We’ve just been too busy to fix it. Our yam plants are being munched on quite a lot. I don’t think they could handle much more pressure. Planning to sow spinach, cilantro, arugula, lettuce, and radishes in the green house this week.
Phillip and a neighbour were able to get the the accessible parking spot and ramp done.
We aren’t in need of volunteers this week. However, it is a full moon week and would love to have people over for watching the moon rise.
Come on over Wednesday-Friday. Moon visible around 6:30 on Wednesday, 30 minutes later the following days. Pizza and face paint Friday evening. If you’d like to join, let me know! I’ll have crusts and simple toppings.
TEA TIME Friday at 10:30. Come have a snack, tea, and discuss plant anatomy and care. Curriculum geared more towards 2nd grade, ALL are welcome though! Feel free to bring anything to share but not needed if you don’t want to.
Unfortunately that’s all I have time for today. I encourage you to visit Astronomy.com to learn about what you can view this week and spaceflightnow.com to learn about what happening in space travel.
Have a wonderful Full moon! Again, feel free to come over for a visit one evening this week. Just give me a heads up.
Thanks,
Gwendolyn
