Victory Garden status 5/25/2013

Wow! Satiddy was the perfect day to work in a garden. Warm, with a cool breeze, and soil which works so easily.

Sue, Jerry, Karen, Jenna, Val, Leah, Latanya, Michelle, and me:
1. Reclaimed the aspergrass row.
2. Replanted (third time) purplehull peas in lot 5.
3. Harvested 2 lbs of strawberries and sweet peas.
4. Did some much needed weeding.
6. Mowed the area.
7. Noted in all that clover they is no honeybees, so sent an urgent request to the Mayor's Action Center asking for town codes relief. Einstein once said when the bees die, humans will too within four years, and he has not been proven wrong ever (must have been an aggravation for his wife.)
8. Tilled the new trailer park community garden on Rowlett Street.
9. Delivered the strawberries and sweetpeas to the Latino children in the trailer park.
10. Dave and friends harvest five more garlic varieties leaving mostly elephant garlic. 175 lbs to date, and will report as we distribute.
11. Admired the beauty of the experimental plot 6 which Selby and Jan are doing.
 
Harvest report:
    2013 to date:

      04/11/2013 41 lbs
      05/01/2013 64 lbs
      05/13/2013 21 lbs
      05/16/2013 51 lbs
      05/23/2013 94 lbs

Next work date is Tuesday 4-530pm. Weeding, watering, roping and riding (just kidding), and move pile of dirt into empty raised beds and sow purplehull peas there.

Ain't God good!!!
