Garden Group

It’s that time again. Spring is almost here and our first planting is on April 9th.

There are a few things we need. Straw…not to be confused with hay. We need the straw for the potato cages. We could use some onion sets and a couple of trellises. Flowers like marigolds and petunias would be great for the garden and we could also use some herbs.

We don’t have to go far for our compost this year. Our UUFP neighbor a few houses up the street on South Keim is giving us horse manure. It’s very good stuff. Well aged. He sells free range chicken and duck eggs. The name of his place is called “Becca’s Birds.” I’ve put a few of his business cards on the Garden Board.
