Summer in the Garden

The El Morro garden is thriving!

Here's what's growing:

    • Full size pumpkin
    • Full size watermelon
    • Corn on the cob
    • Large bell peppers
    • Tons of marigolds
    • Several honeydew melons
    • An abundance of herbs
    • Strawberries



    Last week we did a "work day" and pulled lots of wild mint, pruned the plants, and worked on cleaning up the straw bale seating area that has decomposed. Thanks to Sophie, Luna, and Manou for helping out.

    We will do another work day before schools starts and would love as many helping hands as we can get.

    Please join us on Tuesday, Aug. 30 at 10 a.m. Bring sunscreen, water and a hat. Garden tools and gloves will be provided. I'll bring some snacks!

    Happy Summer,
    Sharael
