Thanks and raspberries

MANY thanks to Terry, our neighbour in the trailer court, who wrapped the garden hose onto another roller that actually works.

The raspberry bushes, that belong to everyone, have berries ready to pick. Help yourself to a cup or so. They are planted just behind the fire pit area.

Meeting Time Change

Normally we have our garden meetings on the 25th of each month, but this time we are delaying to accomodate as many people as possible... our next Community Garden meeting is on July 5th at 7 pm at the garden.  Hope to see everyone there!  If you want to add anything to the agenda beforehand, please contact Stephanie.  Thanks!

June So Far

We have had unseasonably hot dry weather and the garden is taking off!  I have seen tiny green tomatoes, tons of blossoms of all different kinds of fruits and vegetables and the place is just humming with bees.

Wood Chips!

A huge thank you to the guys from Asplundh who were in Tahsis trimming trees away from the power lines.  Tony from the Tahsis Building Supply suggested to them that our garden would be interested in the chips they were producing, and Terry F. showed them where to dump, and long story short, we now have a few big hills of excellent wood chips to use for pathways, filling up holes, maybe mulch, several uses!  What a valuable donation, thanks everyone!  Community spirit comes through once again for the greater good!

Shout Out

A big thank you and shout out to this guy, Russ, who is a great friend to our garden.  Russ manages the trailer park here in Tahsis where our garden is located, and worked tirelessly fixing our water line, knowing how desperate we are for water access this time of year!  As of today, the water is BACK ON! 

Yes, he's also our Fire Chief!
Thanks Russ, for all you do!

Happy Victoria Day!

Today over 25 of us met in the garden for a society meeting, then a lovely outdoor concert by the local "Twang Gang" followed by a delicious pot luck and weiner roast.  Thank you to all who have made out garden such a great place this spring, it looks beautiful and full of promise for the growing season!
