Hello hello!

 

The garden is looking lovely and thanks to the Albarrans, the NYRP crew, and the SlowFood summer camp.  There is a ton of food that we may be able to harvest communally and new areas to plant fall crops!

 

For those of you who have been away for parts of the summer or distant from the garden for a while and are STILL interested, please let me know if you can make a meeting THIS Thursday at 6:30pm!   I know it is short notice so if you CANNOT make it or are no longer interested in the garden, please, please, let me know ASAP. I don’t want to trek out if no one will be meeting me! We can always reschedule to next week or the following Saturday if that works better!

 

Micki- We’d love to have the Green School continue to be involved and you are more than welcome to take back over the half of that front plot.  Please let me know if you are able to make it to the meeting. 

 

I am going to be CHANGING the locks to the garden, both the front gate and the shed. If you want a new key to the garden, you should most definitely be at this meeting.

 

So : IF I hear back from you- Thursday, September 2nd at 6:30 pm in the garden it is!

 

Thanks!


Rachael

Hey Rachael,

We have a parent night that night, so I will be in school and will check with Karali to see if I can steal away to the meeting.  We do want to continue with the plot, so we are trying to set up a meeting with Michelle to check in and plan for this year.  It looks like the parent night is from 5:30 - 7, so I should be able to come maybe a little late though.  

See you soon,
Micki

Hi Rachel,
 
Please take Tim and myself off your mailing list.
 
We had been trying to keep up with watering the apparently ever increasing plots but due to some coordination issues had to realise that it became too much.
 
Thanks,
Inga

I'll do my best to make it. I just got back to the country.  I definitely want a new key.

Hey Rachel

Sorry for the delayed response. I will be in South Carolina on vacation until Monday. I do want a new key. You can leave my key with Jose and Blanca if you want. If you're going to reschedule the meeting the next Sunday the 12th I believe would work for me. Hope you are well.

Thanks

Hello Gardeners,

Hope you've enjoyed summertime! 

I'm still in Maine and extending my stay here at the Morris Farm until the end of October so I won't be able to participate in the garden at this time. I'll come visit when I'm in nyc at the end of September. I wonder if any of the indigo and hibiscus I planted at Heckscher has survived the squirrels and the heat? 

I installed a very large natural dye plants garden at the Phoenix garden, 2037 Fulton Street before coming to Maine for the summer and it is thriving! The community gardeners have tended my dye garden and sent me this photo as an update, I can't wait to come visit and work with these plants! Thought I'd share the photo with you too, please come by and visit!

Best wishes,
Patricia

Thanks for sharing that beautiful photo Patricia- the hibiscus you planted is doing great and I think there are still a few indigo alive in a pot but no flowers unfortunately!

 

It sounds like we will have enough folks around to meet tonight and distribute keys so I look forward to seeing everyone who can make it at 6:30pm.

 

See you then!


Rachael
