Hello Gardeners!
We have a truck full of fall vegetables ready
for planting! Courtesy of the Tarrant Area Food Bank and Archie's Greenland of
Fort Worth, our order has arrived and is ready to go. We have plenty of
plants for everyone--and will disburse them on a first-come, first-served basis
tomorrow evening (Sunday, Sept. 9) at the youth garden mission event/planting party, beginning at
5:00 p.m. Whether you have a bed or want to help with the communal
area, you are welcome to join us!
Also, Rosie from Archie's Greenland
graciously donated a cross vine to plant on the trellis of our garden cottage.
The cottage, as many of you know, was funded by a donation from the Damon
family in honor of Carol Damon. The cross vine has beautiful orange-yellow
flowers (via special request from Toly) and will be a lovely addition to
the garden. We will plant the vine tomorrow night and discuss plans for a
memorial plaque to display next to the cottage.
The following are the plants we have
available. You'll want to consider the size requirements for each plant, and
plan your beds accordingly. Of course, you're always welcome to provide your
own seeds/seedlings. To help you plan, I've listed some helpful garden planning
sites below the list of our plant order.
See you tomorrow night!
Cheers,
Britta
