More Spring Cleaning!

Rhubarb coming up nicely.

What a lovely afternoon spent with new friends cleaning up the Unity Garden at The Oaks. I want to thank all the people who helped today. Welcome to Lisa, Patience, Christian, Olivia and Dad as our first-time gardeners. We hope to see more of you throughout the summer.

As the smaller kids made forts in the woods and played in the stream, the rest of us finished spring cleaning the garden. We filled the new raised bed, planted it with onions and kale, spread TONS of bark chips on walkway areas, pulled weeds and generally had a great time getting to know each other. The seeds we planted last week are coming up nicely as well as the rhubarb and some asparagus! It's so fun to see new life springing forth. God has been good to us in that every Sunday afternoon this month has been sunny and warm enough to work. We are just waiting for the ground to dry enough to get it tilled, but all in good time. We can't wait to get the rest of the garden planted but we'll have to wait for the frost to stop.
