Start your weekend off right...

Please join us for the

Greenvale Park Community Garden Harvest Potluck

Saturday, August 27, 2011

11:30 AM

Cherry Park

Meet other gardeners, enjoy fruits of the harvest, and share experiences you've had this year at the garden.

Please bring a dish to share with others (containing ingredients from your garden, if possible!) Also please bring your plates and flatware.

Directions to the park: From Highway 3, go west on Greenvale Avenue about three blocks and turn south on Cherry Street. Park is at the end of the street (it is a dead end)

We hope to see you there!

Oh Deer.

The garden leadership team met last week and discussed possibilities that could help with the deer problem at the garden. In the meantime, what's happening in your garden plot? Which plants are the deer favoring and what are they leaving alone? If you are doing something that is helping to ward off the deer, please comment and share so we can get some individual ideas circulating.

Time to Dig in (at Last!)
