Saturday April 30 - making dirt for pots



Sixteen of us beat the rain and in record time made up enough garden soil (sifted), compost, lime and fertilizer mix to fill some 450 8" and 350 4" pots  There are a few 5 gallon buckets of this mix in the GH to take home (please return the buckets promptly).  We also surveyed the potatoes (no Colorado Potato Beetles-CPB-yet) and added 1/8 a row of Magic Molly (purple) finger potatoes.  More weeding in the strawberries, etc. was done as well.  Nicole and Bennet serviced the bees Sat afternoon.Thanks to Flore for the photos!
