Happy Thanksgiving | Blue Ridge Community Garden

Blue Ridge Community Garden. November 26, 2014. As we prepare for Thanksgiving, we should all feel a sense of gratitude and satisfaction with our gardening efforts this past growing season. We all did a lot of hard work and, maybe, some good. Tomorrow, as we gather around our tables, we should give a special thanks for the tireless souls at the soup kitchen, food bank, food pantry and community centers who donate their time, energy and resources to help those who need help. We still have much to do.

Blue Ridge Community Garden. May 13, 2015. I think this is amaranth, a common C4 weed locally known as “pig weed”. If so, we have a whole passle of it growing in the new section of our Giving Garden, which I spent almost three hours hoeing this morning. I just came out of the Agricultural Extension Office where I showed Cynthia Martel, the weed expert, the plant’s photo and she confirmed it as amaranthus, an invasive weed of cattle pastures. Fresh Spinach for the Soup Kitchen. Leave a Reply Cancel reply.

Blue Ridge Community Garden. Fresh Spinach for the Soup Kitchen. May 15, 2015. Yesterday two master gardeners followed Cody and me to the garden and between the four of us, we finally got everything in the ground with enough to spare for Cody and I to start another garden, probably a keyhole at his house. So I hurried to the Ag Center and found Angie Dahl, Chekka and a group of students busy putting plants in the ground. May 13, 2015. But I know amaranth was cultivated as a very drought tolerant, highly ...

Count Your Blessings | Blue Ridge Community Garden
http://www.blueridgecommunitygarden.com/277
Blue Ridge Community Garden. March 18, 2015. Another gardener who lives near New Vision’s Giving Garden owns a plow and a disc. About a week ago, the gardener, who’s named Jerry, visited out garden and offered to bring his equipment up and double the size of our garden. Today, Jerry came up and plowed. Jerry will let the soil dry a bit before he discs it. Meanwhile, I continue germinating seed. I suppose this is a case of “count your blessings and figure out how to deal with them”. We’ll need help;.
