GARDEN UPDATE
We are plugging away with our garden projects! During our last work day on Dec 3 we dug out the old soil in the raised beds, started installing hardware cloth (to gopher proof them) and made a prototype bed. Our next work party is Sunday, Jan 21 when we plan to add gravel to the meditation garden, finish the hardware cloth installation and replace the soil into the beds. We also have a workday on Sunday, Feb 4 when we plan to add more garden soil to top off the newly raised beds. This will set us up for planting in the spring. While all of this is happening, the garden club has been meeting weekly during lunch. We have been planning work days and in January, we will turn our focus to planning and then planting our seeds for our spring planting.
Thanks for all the support! Our APC grant is paying for the gravel for the meditation garden and a generous parent has helped us with a grow stand, as well as raised beds supplies and refurbishing. We still have a few items on our wish list here if you’d like to help.
If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to Lori Tewksbury (LTewksbury@auhsdschools.org; room 201). Happy Holidays!!
