Monday June 6, 2011 Carl, Eric Reed, Les, Whit, Zoe, Martha Garner, Linda Faile, and In Sung:
Gathered 26 bags of grass clippings and attacked with hoes and the grass clippings.
Planted 100 each Beauregard and Porto Rico sweet tater slips and walked and watered them in.
Janet showed me how to use our hose on the rear spigot. Since there are timers on two of the spigots, do not turn the water off on them by pulling down the lever.
Whit watered the back two plots thoroughly and repaired the wheelbarrow.
Jeff aired up the tires on the wagon.
I watered the middle two plots on Wednesday.
Today I harvested about 1/3 carrots and some cabbages for total 34 lbs and took to the Food Pantry. I watered and weeded all of the front 2 plots.
Next work is Saturday morning 8am to harvest rest of the beautiful garlic.
