Coming Soon, fresh vegetables.
Since it was a pretty terrible day to be outside, around these parts, I decided to dedicate my Sunday afternoon and evening to making plans for the local Community Garden. Emily came over and we spent about six hours working on the plans and drawing up the design.
With a good plan in place it will be much easier for more people to become involved with the project. The main goal is to teach people about and to help provide healthy and wholesome organic foods for the community. Everyone is welcome to join in on the garden and it is totally free for people to come and be a part of.
The plans are set up to have four large bedding areas. Three of the area will be planted and the fourth area is a fallow area. We also drew up designs for a large area for a medicinal and cullinary herb garden. And set aside areas for fruit and nut trees and for composting. In the future we hope to also have vermicomposting beds and free range chickens. And possibly camels.
In all it seemed like a nice way to spend the day. Doing something that is good for the environment, good for the community and good for the spirit.
