Our garden needs you.  
This Saturday from 10-2, or longer. 
Weed wack, pull weeds, water, chit-chat, plant some new ones, pull some old ones. 
Now is the key time to set the tone for the garden for the year.  No new weeds will sprout up and new plants will have a good chance to mature.  

Bring any new plants you want to contribute. 
Bring your gloves, and your favorite implements of destruction.  I'll try to predict your needs and bring a truck load of tools. 

Extra credit if you find easter eggs. 

Pollinators garden
25051  Whitman, Hayward. 

Cheers, 
Phil Stob

Looks to be a great day in the garden tomorrow.  Hope to see you there.  Got a bunch of milkweed to plant, and some Echium , and some other stuff.

April, I’m just a fool for you
The weatherman can’t predict your mood
I adore the rain until it’s time to spend a day in the garden to plant.  And your rain is just too infrequent to count on for those new tender shoots.  

I sit in my truck, appropriately listening to the blues.  
Waiting for sun to return.   Better put on some sunscreen before I burn.  

April is a cruel mistress I can’t quit.  Though the bees will tell you it’s a big hit.  

Cheers, 
Phil Stob
