| Pat, our gardener (in the hat), takes a moment to speak with a journalist. Note how she has cut back many of our garden perennials like chives and the ornamental society garlic to grow again during the Fall and Winter season. |
Last week our gardener Pat worked hard on the "out with the old" chore of garden clean-up by pulling out any herbs unharvested by our enthusiastic community of gleaners! (Thank you again to those who participated in our last herb harvest of the year!) She also began prepping the soil by working in compost from our own Student Farm, along with a soil supplement we told you about last season called Earthworks Renovate/Plus. For more information about this product check out our previous blog entry on the topic here.

| This patch is where we grew our corn. The spearmint patch in the foreground looks very happy doesn't it? It smells great too, but don't forget to keep it pulled up and pruned back from areas where you don't want it--mint likes to take over! |
It is looking rather barren out there now. It's times like these when there's hope in the air...as in, I hope something grows from all those seeds of lettuce, chard, kale, beets, etc. we'll be planting this week!
What's going on with your garden so far this season?
