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.
