This week in the TCC garden

[TCC Community Garden Thurgoona]

Hi Everyone,

This week (Fri July 16th) we met in the garden and were surprised by
some punnets of vegetable seedlings delivered by Nick from Potted
Colour. We filled the legume bed with peas and broad beans and
planted out some delicious looking radish seedlings. Find out more
with pictures here:

This week also marked the end of the School holiday program where I
helped with three weekly groups on Wednesdays. The enthusiastic
children filled two raised beds with plants, planted two boxes with
mints and set up the fabulous worm farm. The kids also painted a
mural on the wall and painted a fantastic wooden chair as well. The
rest of the week the groups of children learnt to cook with Michelle
from Relish life, it was a fabulous program Pictures:

plant the rest of the seedlings and do
maintenance work and we'll discuss what we'll do with our harvest/
yield. More information about this
