BIRTHDAY time!



It's Matt's birthday on Saturday, and it's Pennsylvania Garden's 10th birthday too! What does that mean? It means we will be having cake at the volunteer workday on Saturday from 10am-2pm.

We're going to do a real push to weed Pennsylvania Railroad Garden this week as well, as I have placed a large plant order and the beds need to be prepared before the plants go in.

So please join us - we'll be at PRG rain or shine. :)

Weed is legal in Canada!

Well, that got your attention ;) But the reality is, weed(s) are also legal in California, and we have too many of them. So at today's volunteer workday we pulled a lot out - along with some tired looking plants that need to be replaced.

I totally failed to get great pictures of all the seven volunteers who worked so hard in the surprisingly hot sun, but here is a screen grab of the 6 311 tickets I opened as we have SO MUCh stuff to get rid of!

A desk and two trash cans had been dumped, there was an encampment on the pathway, and we made four vast piles of green waste.

Add to that, Carrie and Chris had a phenomenal workday on Wednesday too, and had cleaned out a vast pile of weeds themselves. We still have a way to go, but this is a great start on PRG to prepare for our big winter replanting effort.

When Matt and I got home, we propagated a ton of plants from cuttings for that effort, and we're looking forward to getting them in the ground really soon.
