Saturday Workday with Door Prizes and Bluebird Fundraiser

This Thursday, April 25th and Saturday, April 27thare our April work days. Thursday is from 10:00 to 12:00 and Saturday is from 10:00 to 12:00 also.  So far, here is the list of things we've come up with that needs to be worked on.

· Weeding (ongoing and forever)
· Weed pollinator beds before mulching
· Mulch pollinator beds with mini-pine nuggets
· Spread free or purchased mulch in garden common areas
· Move the compost/dirt pile and sift it as we move it
· Round-up along outside of fence (Thursday only)
· Till the sunflower border area (Saturday only)
· Plant sunflower border area (Saturday only)
· Weed eat/cut onions and Round-up remaining stems
· Weed around sign and plant 4 or 5 Caldwell Pink roses around the GMP sign
· Plant 4 Celeste figs in 1 gallon containers on the upper terrace
· Give the shed a good sweeping and cleaning
· Remove blooms & fruits from the fruit trees (Saturday only)
    (The fruits need to be removed so the trees develop a good healthy root system the first year in the ground)
 
As you can see there is a lot to do and we probably won’t get it all done on Thursday and Saturday unless YOU come help us.   Even if you can only come out for an hour, your contribution of time and effort will be greatly appreciated.
 
On Saturday after the workday is over at 12:00, we will be having a Bluebird Lunch Fundraiser for the Bluebird Trail.  Mike and Sue will be providing a delicious selection of food.  For further details, check the link to the Bluebird Lunch Fundraiser post.
