Updates

Three lovely people showed up to work on the entrances on Saturday. We weeded, trimmed and prepped the beds for winter. None of us could bare to take out the annuals because they look so lovely, so we left them to remove later.

The rain started in earnest shortly there after, which might be why people didn't show up for the perennial exchange. However, plants were exchanged with neighbors on a door to door basis later on, and new friends were made, which was the point of all of it--so let's just call that one a success! :) Hopefully this will be a biannual tradition.

Much of the discussion on Saturday centered around catching people up on the opposition to the garden. Ideas of a revitalization of the garden club ensued as a different way to help get people involved in the community and connected. We will see where this all goes.

Lastly, today surveys were handed out to neighbors, and an electronic version will go out via email. Hopefully the organizers will get a lot of responses.

SHRA Entrance Makeover to Raise Funds

Hi, Everyone!

We have some residents signed up to help, but we would love more. The dates for our SHRA entrance makeover will be:

4/25-Saturday-weed/edge/plan
5/9-Saturday-shop/plant/mulch/trash removal

This schedule makes it possible for families to participate both days without committing two weekends in a row. Please email me to let me know you are willing to help (even if it is just for an hour). This will help us to divvy up the tasks.
