Mucho Mulch!



We had a parent/volunteer workday in the garden over the weekend and are pleased to announce that we finally were able to get mulch delivered to use between the garden beds. In an effort to kill the crab grass that has taken over the area, we put weed barrier cloth down first, covered it with cardboard and then put the mulch on top. The added benefit is that it also gives the garden a more "finished" look. 

We were also fortunate to have a Master Gardener on-hand to prune our fruit trees in hopes of a spring harvest of apples, peaches, avocados, and lemons. Yum!

Let us know if you are interested in volunteering in the garden! We can always use an extra hand for Funday Monday (lunchtime), Garden Club (after school), or Work Days (weekend).

Sincerely,
The Garden Gals
