President’s Message
I’ve been busy preparing and planting our winter garden. I was able to plant all my raised beds, except for one, before this heat wave hit us. Most everything I have planted has popped up and I hope to get my last bed planted in the next few days. Then I can look forward to harvesting our crops in a month or so. If you haven’t planted your winter garden yet, with our current weather, you may still be able to plant one, but you will need to get it planted very soon!
Our Saturday propagating program is moving along, and we will be doing cuttings every Saturday thru November 21, so come out and enjoy a few hours with a great group of gardeners and help propagate plants for our sale. I hope to see you on Saturday between 10:00 AM and noon.
