Monthly Archives: October 2009

End of season is upon us, Planning meetings ahead

The growing season is coming to a close.  It’s time to clean up and to discuss our dreams for the future.

Our garden’s regular open hours end this Saturday, as every year at the end of October. Yet it’s always a great time to share your advice and expertise, and we hope you will join us for our upcoming meetings.

Saturday, October 31: 1-6p.m. Regular Open Hours in the Garden (Last day of the year!)

Sunday, November 1: 3p.m.  Members Share Thoughts and Priorities (be prompt, we will move to Senior Center or other nearby indoor location tbc quickly)

Monday, November 2: 7:30p.m. Garden Planning Meeting, hosted by TRUCE (next to the garden on St Nicholas, just south of 118th Street). All are welcome.

On the agenda is the current draft of the garden layout:
