FALL 2011
Once again, the crisp days of autumn are upon us and we have much to do in the Blair Street Gardens before winter sets in.
Beginning Saturday, October 22 and continuing on weekends to Sunday, November 20, we NEED VOLUNTEERS to help pull annuals, rake leaves, clean the perennial beds and plant lots of bulbs. CLICK on the LINK on the LEFT for the VOLUNTEER SCHEDULE. Call Jeff at 258-1409 for more information.
This year we must replace about 2,400 (yes - over 2,000!) bulbs, including tulips, daffodils, Dutch irises, camassia, ornithogalum, lilies and allium. For most of this work, we will use a bulb planter which requires two people working as a team. There will be sign-up times to keep this process moving along. Other plantings are smaller and for those we will dig out the area to be planted and lay in the bulbs.
Thanks for your help.
