Neighborhood Garden       Planting Party

Come join us at 9:00 Saturday, May 18, 2013 for the planting party.

Bring lots of vegetables to plant.

The ground has been prepared, the garden beds will be staked tonight, Wed, 15th, the irrigation system should be in by Friday, and then we will be set to plant.

If anyone can help with the staking tonight, please call me 435 654-1313 or Jarom Stubbs 801 472-2616.  We only need 3-4 people for about 1 1/2 hours.

Leonard Hughes and Ryan Peterson are spearheading the irrigation construction.  If you can offer assistance, I'm sure they would appreciate it. 801-376-2280 or 801-854-2889.

So far, there have only been about 9 tomato plants, 2 peppers, a few potatoes, 1 squash plant purchased at McCoards, for the garden.  I'm sure many others have, or plan to purchase plants to donate to the garden, but I haven't received any word yet.
If you are planning to bring some plants to the garden, would you send me a quick e-mail or text to that effect.  I'm getting a little worried we will have a very small garden.
Also, McCoards (on the airport road) will sell you their greenhouse grown plants for 50% off, and any other things for 20% off. 
Everything will grown better if we plant it in some additional compost as the soil is pretty much all clay.  So, if you could get a bag of compost with your plants ($2.50 at Walmart) it would be a great help.  (McCoards has great compost but it is over $6.00 a bag)

If anyone would like to help defray some of the costs for items I've purchased already, it would be very welcome.

I hope to see you all on Saturday...for cookies and planting.
