What an awesome turnout! Thank you to everyone that came out to help clean up the garden and shelter area! We were able to clean out the shelter area and pulled tons of weeds that needed oust from out flowerbeds! Pat Lace and Stacy were searching for monarch caterpillars in hoping to save them! It is discovered that between the two of them they were able to find over 20 caterpillars throughout the milkweed! Alyseia has taken on the choir of caring for six caterpillars! You go girl! Thanks again to everyone that has helped out on Saturday! We would love to see everyone on Tuesday for a night in the garden and a beautiful time learning the songs for the choir!

Yeah! The garden was able to start on an avenue of getting cleaned up for our Harvest Celebration! We began to weed throughout the garden and pick up the unusual items that were left around the garden site. It was fascinating to meet the new interns and hear how excited they are to be working with us this season!

I am especially excited to see new people coming to visit the garden!
THERE HAS BEEN A  CALL FOR EVERYONE THAT CAN TO COME OUT AND HELP US CLEAN ON SATURDAY! LUNCH WILL BE PROVIDED!

September 1, 2012, We were visited by the BAT MAN!

Today, Terry Lobdell, or “The Bat Man” came to visit us and spoke to a group of us about how useful bats are for agricultural areas. We learned interesting facts about bat houses and that our area has eight to nine different bats. It was interesting to see that we have two bats living in the bat house on the shelter! Yes they are working! Terry also showed us a variety of bat houses. It was interesting to learn neat details about the bats that fly and keep our insects and mosquitoes to a tolerance! thank you Terry for coming out!
