July 3rd Work Session

Our garden is really starting to take off.  With all this heat and the automated water system, things are looking good.  There are lots of green tomatoes and the eggplant and beans are just starting to produce.  The greens and herbs are all charging ahead.  And, of course, the weeds are right there with it all.

As per usual we have a work session tonight and this will include: WEEDING (including herb and flower beds, i encourage everyone to put in a solid 1/2 hour of weeding), staking any tomatoes that don't already have stakes, continuing tomato suckering (someone should know how to do this if  you don't), turn the compost, check for squash bugs, thinning beets, carrots, radishes as needed.  As for harvest:  chard, kale, herbs, and this week we'll have our first green beans and a few eggplant!
