Bug Off! - July 6, 2011



Hoping everyone had a perfect July 4th! We spent less time in the gardens this weekend, but we are back at it this week! This time, we are working on those pesky little critters that keep eating at our plants! Bugs!

One of our Community Garden Members, Shannon Harker, sent over a good and informative article on controlling bugs with household formulas in an environmentally safe way. After looking over it, we will put this up on the blog as a reference site for all of our gardeners in the years to come! Take a look and let us know what you think! www.finegardening.com

I'm not sure if I mentioned it before, but there was also a good article in Amish Land Seeds, too, about starting seeds. So, I hope that you'll check that one out as well!

This week will bring us lots of weeding. Organic gardening is anything if it isn't a constant challenge to weed the invasive plants out. It's supposed to be a rainy week, so it will be nice to have things a little cooler, but it won't control the weeds any!

See you out in the gardens!
