Rain

It looks like rain for today's session, and for Sunday's session as well.

Rather than send out cancellations each time it rains, you can assume that the session is cancelled if it is raining. If it is only drizzling, however, please stop by!

Changes

Last week, a garden leader resigned due to medical reasons. Luckily, Gary stepped up and will now be leading two evening work sessions.

The updated June schedule:

Planted and Growing

Thanks to the help of 16 adults 22 children, and about 106 hours volunteered, most of the garden beds are now planted. In the ground, we have: carrots, radishes, beets, zucchini, tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, swiss chard, lettuce, onions, corn, and various herbs!



The Garden Board met yesterday afternoon, and we discussed scheduling. How has scheduling worked out for YOU? Have you missed garden sessions because they were not convenient for you? What times would you like to see on the schedule? Please feel free to give Molly feedback at MKerker@dor.org or (585) 658-4466 ext/24.

Celebration Success!

Thanks to everyone who came out to the opening celebration on Sunday. It couldn't have gone better -- beautiful weather, music, crafts, and conversation among neighbors. Many new people were introduced to the garden, and it was an awesome opportunity to reflect on all that we've accomplished.

Thank you to Josh Netsky and John Barrington for providing music, the Child Care Counsil for providing a craft table, Mt. Morris Kiwanis for the use of their tent, and Cole Party Rental for the use of their bounce house.

Next work sessions --

Wednesday, 5/26: 4:00pm - 5:30pm
Saturday, 5/29: 1:00pm - 3:00pm
Sunday, 5/30: 11:00am-1:00pm

Moving Right Along

Thanks to everyone who came out to our last work sessions! We were able to stake out the beds, do a little mulching in the pathways, and plant some carrot, lettuce, and radish seeds.
