Garden Housekeeping

As the temps rise, so do the weeds! I'm asking gardeners to help pull up weeds growing alongside their garden beds and gather any loose straw on the pathways.

Just a reminder that the garden has a carry in, carry out policy. It would be helpful if you could bring home your used plant containers. Thank you.
