We started our weekend out with harvesting more of those delicious Turnips.











Ahh...this Swiss Chard loves its little bed.

Broccoli ready or not your getting chopped!

 

 This is one show we like to see...

Lots of excitement around this

One of the neighborhood little buddy stopped by to lend a hand with transplanting and sowing seeds!

This area will soon be filled with a colorful garden with many energized sign ups coming in weekly!

These Sunflowers are enjoying the cooler weather we have been having.

This head of Broccoli is just moments away from harvesting.

 

With harvesting complete it is now hours away from being cooked for dinner Stir-fry anyone? Littlest farmer on the right!!!!

                                        This plot was pulled together quickly with the help of three dedicated members. 

                                        Around two hours later this is how it looked!

                                                 No time to slow down we quickly got this member setup with growing beds soaker hoses in place and finally seedlings planted to finish the  set up steps. 

                                                                                                          Bye Bye, to those $18.00 hose splitters, Hello to the $5.00 homemade PVC splitter.             

Happy New Year!

 Our recent sign up didn't waste any time getting this 20 x 40 plot ready for growing vegetables in just 1 weekend.

                                                                               




With a few people on a small scale project things mover quicker...great teamwork.









Spreading our top soil on top of the  compost for a good rich growing bed. This is all that's needed to get YOU started here! Come join and grow with us!

 

 The finished product after only 2.5 hours, soil in place soaker hoses installed. Ready-Set-Grow! Great job to all who assisted!

                                                                                                      

Fresh Turnips were another weekend excitement. Delicious they were as a gardener chopped, shared  and eaten raw after a quick rinsing and peeling with a gardeners knife.
