Plot 78B

My friend Allan and I are now co-lessors of a 4x8 garden plot at the Fox Point Community Garden!  She's not much to look at right now but we are hoping with a little TLC, she will be beautiful and bountiful.

The garden came with a thriving chive plant, an abundance of chickweed (which would be great food for chickens if either of us had any), and a few yet unidentified seedlings.  We pulled the chickweed left it lying there to keep the soil from drying out while we plan our crop.

To create some diversity in the Community Garden, we chose a crop that has big showy flowers, is edible, and grows well in full sun.  We'll shop for seeds this week and get them in the ground.  Stay tuned to find out what it is!
