Hello garden people! Because of busy holiday happenings we will only be in the garden from 1-2 today. We hope to see you then! If you’d like to spend more time working, or come earlier you are welcome to! Call Daphne at 510-978-3130

Hello gardeners! We wont be doing much gardening today, as we are cleaning out part of the “barn” to use as a resource center for the community! Some lovely ladies are coming out from Mills College to help get it started from 11-1. We would love your help too.. if you are interested.. and YES you can earn produce after working! Maybe we’ll see you there? Also…. please bring any old hangers  you are no longer in need of, as we need them for hanging up clothing donations. Thanks!

Hello gardners!

In honor of halloween and some children under the weather, we’ll have an abreviated work day in the garden today.

Noon until 2pm, just for watering and weeding.

Also, needed today is a run to get chicken food.  Here’s Daphne’s note, if anyone can help please either email (daphnemejia(at)gmail.com) or call 510-978-3130.

“Usually I go to San Leandro to purchase more, but Peter is sick so I am unable. It needs to be done today or they may be okay until tomorrow.. but that is pushing it, as the feed is very low. Can any of you help? The place I get the feed is called Mikes Feed in San Leandro. I get the lay crumble, 2 fifty lb bags. After purchasing, you will need to turn in receipt to get reimbursed.”

What are you doing to that chicken??!!

The basil (in the planter) is being over watered. Please make sure you don’t water it if it is damp already.

What do you think? Here is Izzy with the goats at Ghost town Farm. They like hanging out on the stairs of Novella’s apartment.
