Valley Community Garden
Happenings!
Toast? I was thinking what's the difference between yummy
toast: nice brown, hot, buttery, salty toast, and it's
near kin: dry, cold, and the butters not even melted toast!
And it seems to me the difference really comes down to
diligence and timing.
And what about a productive, beautiful garden? the same... Diligence and timing. I was out last week
doing some tilling and most of the second year beds tilled like cutting
through nice soft butter (which actually got me thinking of toast) with the
butter knife. All except a couple of those Central
Oregon beds - you know who you are! We'll be putting compost on
the beds on the 20th of March and I'm praying a good number of you all will
show to help us push it around meet some of the gardeners and till it in.
We'll need tillers that day and some wheel barrels so if you have one that we
can use please let me know and I'll be happy to come and get it.
If you're interested in joining us out in the garden this
season please give me a ring at 503-570-4395 or email at jim@tongaministries.org.
There's room yet for 6 more gardeners.
