Spring Break

This week the kids are on spring break, so it is a great time to get maintenance done on the garden. Instead of the normal group of three volunteers in the garden, we had seven people at the garden working today. We had two volunteers, Ned and Christine Bellamy, who were part of the original group of volunteers that dug the park.

We spent our time edging the beds as this time intensive task normally isn't able to get accomplished during the course of a regular garden shift. With so many volunteers though, it was easy to edge all of the beds in the Campbell Park garden. With a couple more shifts this size, it will be easy to get the garden into great shape for the kids when the get back from spring break. 

Andrea also worked on transplanting starters into our herb bed. The original seeds didn't sprout that we planted in the bed. After the transplants were finished, and all the beds were edged and watered the two hour shift was done. Hopefully soon we will be able to begin building the fences around the beds.
