Garden Club: Fall 3


October 17, 2012
BULB Planting Day.  The TEAM gardeners were out on this overcast day to plant some garlic cloves, daffodils called Ice Follies, tulips, and a few mystery bulbs donated by Ms. Bikkina.   We had some new gardeners from the Fifth grade that included Brigitte, Anthony, Cody, Grace and Zahmir.  And then we had a reunion with our experience gardeners.   Now Sixth graders, Kasim and Messiah played in the dirt and our returning now seventh grade veteran Shawn arrived to finish up the job.  It was absolutely wonderful to see these guys and they all seemed to have terrific and restful summers.  The season has wound down, the last of the clean-up has been done and it is time to let the soil rest and rejuvenate.  In the meantime, plans for next Spring are beginning to form and while entries will be much more sparse, please check in every once in a while to see what is cooking for Spring 2013.

Keep warm this winter and think green thoughts.  This has been a fantastic experience and I look forward to seeing everyone out in the garden, getting dirty next planting season.  Signing off for now.
