What's New in the GardenThe garden day teams are holding work parties on various days throughout the month in order to work on the February Chore list. If you haven't heard from your day leader about this, you will... If you haven't watched the video on "Spring Bed Prep: adding fertilizer and the final layer of compost", this would be a good time to do so, as we will be doing this in the chores this month. Available in the garden: * free strawberry and bare-root raspberry plants for adoption * lemons that have been thinned from the trees (use in these recipes and more, coming soon) All up at the picnic table next to the shed. On 30 January the New Members orientation meeting was held; thank you to all presenters, and welcome to all new gardeners. The meeting was recorded; if you would like to view the recording, send email to [email protected]. What's New on the WebsiteThe garden now has a Wish List -- items that would be useful if you happen to have them around, or would otherwise like to donate, and services that are needed in various parts of the garden. Some great new photos have been submitted by gardeners, and posted on the Photos page. Check it out, and if you have any photos to share, please email them (high-resolution please) to [email protected]. The list of plant parents has been updated to include Frank Waskey for fruit trees, and Deanna DeGaetano for rhubarb. There are still other available opportunities for plant parents -- take a look at the list if you are interested. Paul Mundy has been added to the list of Wednesday day leaders.

YEAR END GARDEN SURVEY
As our 2026 season of abundance in the garden nears its end, we want to know your thoughts about the crops (and varieties if you remember) that you most liked and/or disliked. This will help us plan for next year! In addition, if you think we should be growing a new crop, we would like to hear from you. Please let us know why it would be a good fit for our garden. Please fill out the survey here: https://forms.gle/BhNXw4xebLAsHUZ27 WINTER WORK PARTY DATES:
Monday November 16 from 10am-1pm Monday, December 7, from 1-4pm Tuesday, January 12, from 10am-1pm Wednesday, January 27, from 10am-1pm Thursday, February 11, from 10am-1pm Friday, February 19, from 10am-1pm If any workparty is rained out, the party will happen the week following 2026 Saturday Watering Sign up Here is the link to the 2026 Saturday Watering page: https://www.signupgenius.com/go/10C0C4BADA72AA6FCC52-61833127-posh As part of garden membership, each gardener committed to watering on one Saturday during the garden season (March 3-Nov. 14). Watering needs to be started not later than 10am on Saturdays. If you sign-up for a day and find that you cannot do it, you must find a replacement for yourself. In addition, please let your day leader know. The week prior to your watering day, we recommend that you tag along with your team waterer so you are familiar with the watering procedure. I also recommend connecting with the other people who signed up for watering on that day to coordinate. Please know that if it is raining, Saturday watering will still need to be done. Our seedlings under remay will need to be watered and depending on the amount of rain, other beds may need to be watered. if you have questions about it, please reach out to your Day Leader.
