Hey Gardeners,

Now is a great time to take a trip out to your garden–whether it is in your back yard or at Metzgar Fields and make a plan for the year!

Take some notes…
What do YOU want to grow?
Where will you grow it?
When will you plant it?
When will you harvest it?
Where will your walkways be?
Are there any bare spots that will get weedy?
Do you have things that need stakes, cages, or trellises such as peas, tomatoes, or pole beans?
Don’t forget to plant some flowers.  You and the bees will love them!

Take some time to make a sketch. The large community garden plots are 20×40 ft and the small plots are 10×40 ft and use seed packets for info on plant spacing. You can plant a lot in this space!!
