CVG harvest and delivery to Food Pantry 11/11/2010 55 lbs:
Collierville High School band volunteers and Carl harvested 3 bushels of turnips and turnip greens and 2 bushels of collard greens Wednesday 11/10 and delivered to the Food Pantry.
I turned on sprinklers 7:30 this morning and emailed church office asking them to turn them off any time after 9am.
Wes and Dave planted 686 cloves of 31 varieties of garlic in plot 3 north side 3 beds. Some of it is sprouting!!!!!!
Jim Holland and I worked out details for establishing an asparagus bed next Spring using Jersey Supreme hybrid and Martha Washington heirloom varieties. He is leader on this project.
Jimmy and Wes completely finished the cleanup for the winter!!!!!
Martha requested town donate and deliver a truck of mulched leaves. After next week's big harvest most of the garden will be ready for a snug blanket of organic material. We need to organize a large team to make this happen one Saturday in December.
Next Wed 2:30pm the CHS Band volunteers will help harvest again. Next week is the big day at the Food Pantry for Thanksgiving. I would like to take 2 bushels of collards and 8 bushels of turnips.
The Collierville Victory Garden and Butterfly Haven is committed to the Memphis Area Master Gardeners' mission to pass on the joy of gardening and UT Extension horticultural knowledge. Through the generosity of the Collierville Christian Church and MAMG, this Plant-A-Row for the Hungry (PAR) garden donates its vegetables to the Collierville Food Pantry, Resurrection Catholic School and Fayette County Project Outreach and its flowers to Page Robbins and Habitat for Humanity.
