Tilling Day

The rain is delaying us again. Tilling has been postponed for one week. The long range forecast looks great! http://www.wunderground.com/US/OR/Milwaukie.html

I have reserved a Toro Dingo for Friday (5/11) afternoon through early afternoon on Saturday (5/12); that should be enough time to get all of the beds tilled; but, just in case there isn't time to get to them all, we will till the beds already rented first. If you want to rent a plot, fill out the form on the tab at the top of this page!

We will be working from 3:30 to 7pm on Friday May 11th, and 9am to 2pm on Saturday May 12th. It would be great to have groups of 3 or 4 volunteers working in 2 to 3 hour shifts over the weekend. I will have our first load of compost delivered on Friday to spread over the weekend. Please RSVP so I will know how many people I have for each shift.  I need someone with a vehicle that can tow the Dingo to volunteer to pick up and/or return it with me at Johnson Creek Rentals.

Since we won't be able to till tomorrow (5/5) we can attend the soil health class at Saint Paul church (10am to Noon) and the Clackamas County Master Gardeners Plant sale in Canby!

April showers bring May flowers. May downpours make for an impatient CCG director!
