If you have been down to the garden lately you will see that new member Cheryl O'Donnell has done a phenomenal job of clearing blackberries. Further, Cheryl has offered to put in grapes and an arbour at her own expense to enhance our space - this is simply wonderful, yay Cheryl!
Garden VP Rita has already taken out 5 truckloads of brambles and what we need now is for everyone to pitch in and help with the rest. There are more brambles piled up and the garden needs to be tidied for Spring. Work party date is Saturday March 30th at 10 AM. If it's pouring rain, rain date is Saturday, April 6th. We picked Saturday as this is when the dump is open.
Other chores include cleaning up the greenhouse, the herb bed needs a good prune and weeding, winter deadfall picked up, tidying, etc. Ideally, we would like to take down sinking Tabletop bed T7 - and re-purpose the lumber. If you are not able to do any of the heavier tasks, bring your moral support and maybe some treats for the team. 
Everyone should bring water to drink, work gloves, tools and a bagged lunch/snack. Those who have greenhouse space should bring buckets, rubber gloves, rags/brushes, plant friendly soap.
VP Rita Dawson has the lead on this work party - please contact Rita (7751) if you have any questions or specific offers of help.
