Next work day is 5pm on Tuesday. Please RSVP by email to me if you can help. WE NEED SEVERAL VOLUNTEERS for this one last planting push.
What needs done:
1. Hill up rows in plots 5 and 6 and smooth them.
2. Plant turnips: 2 1/2 inch furrows in each hill, sprinkle lightly Osmocote, sprinkle lightly liquid fertilizer, sprinkle lightly seeds, walk the rows for good seed to soil contact, water rows, and pray for the Good Lord to give the increase.
3. Plant carrot and rutabaga seeds in raised beds in plot 4 and outside row plot 2.
4. Move piles of vines to dumpster, not to exceed dumpster half full.
5. Mulch middles of all rows with the bags of grass clippings.
Aint God good!
