Overall the Community Garden is going well. I’m getting more volunteers each week and have had many donations to the garden.
More assistance is needed...stop by anytime to weed a row, spread some mulch, or plant your extra seeds/plants.
I found a community gardening competition that could win us $10,000-$50,000 to fix up the garden and provide more services through the garden. I submitted an essay in hopes of winning the contest.

Also, I’m talking with the Suwannee County Extension office about offering a tomato canning class in the Community Center. We’ve got a good crop of tomatoes coming so I thought it would be good to have a class on safe canning techniques.
Thanks,
Barb
