Nov 2, 2014PS 372 Garden Committeefeatured news, gardenmilkweed, organic soil, winterize, work day Half the team removed dirt and plants from planters inside the little yard. While the others cut down and cleared the raised beds. Our goals: To move the planters out of the courtyard… Pull up…(Those sunflower roots are no joke!) clear out the edibles… Replenish all the planters with soil and compost, Remove the irrigation tubes and prep the edible beds, plant some garlic (which overwinters) and broadcast rye seeds for a cover crop that will improve the soil. Brie took home the last sunflower… And the planters are ready to house milkweed and other pollinator-friendly, non-edible plants. Good as new!
