- Sunflower
Sept. 7, 2017
Hello,
This past Sunday, we were able to harvest 105 lbs. of sweet potatoes. Our harvest total for this week was 136 lbs.
Next Thursday, Sept. 14, will be a big harvest day for the garden! We will remove the peppers and beans, put fencing up for the peas (they sprouted last weekend), weed, weed, weed and maybe trim down the sunflowers.
The okra will remain in the garden until the first of October, or until after the first frost.
The Bellevue Hospital will be hosting the last Garden Market of the year on Sept. 13! Drown's Garden Market of Green Springs will be here from 9:00 a.m. - 2:00 p.m. with fresh produce for purchase. We hope you are able to join us!
The season is coming to a close and we tried some interesting things this year - some things that worked, and some things that didn't. We will have a final report for the garden in October.
Thank you!
