Details on Service Project

Hi all- the service project will go on tomorrow regardless of the weather (just like cross country). Dress for rain. Also, boys, please don’t forget to inform the Aryas if you’re coming to lunch afterwards. Here’s some details:

There will be folks on hand to help direct volunteers, but here’s a list of what we’d like to accomplish:

1. Remove veggie plants in field, particularly those in rows with trellises. Shovel rotten tomatoes into buckets and dump into the compost bin on the other side of the fence. Plant material will be dumped at the fence line just to the left of the manure pile (marked with straw bale)

2. Move remaining compost under tarps into raised beds

3. Place cardboard on raise beds, except those that will be planted with garlic

4. Move cattle panels (trellises) over to cover raised beds that have cardboard down. Remaining panels will be placed along the fence.

5. Remove tbar stakes and move them to area behind the shed

Secondary tasks if weather and time allows:

1. Plant garlic unless it’s too mucky

2. Weed around berry cage

3. Move wood chip pile near berries to raise bed area

4. Weed marigold bed

5. Spread mulch near the marigold beds along fence, pull up plastic, and move roller to a spot behind the shed

6. Harvest sunchokes

Hope to see you and your volunteers tomorrow. Please dress for the weather!
