The final “workday” for the 2010 season was on Saturday, December 10.  It was a glorious day!  A multitude of minor tasks were completed as the garden was covered up (mulched) and readied for whatever Mr. Winter has in store for us.  In addition to all of the members bringing home many hundreds of pounds of fresh produce, the Western Wake Crisis Center received over 1500 pounds of food this year.

Just because there Christmas bells are jingling, don’t forget the garden will keep tingling as it waits for the sun’s strength to warm and awaken it.  Since memberships for the 2011 season are already rolling in, you’ll want to be sure to submit yours early!  Remember, annual family membership (Jan-Dec) is only $10, so come sow, grow, harvest, and build friendships at the garden. There’s no green thumb needed; we all learn from each other as we grow along.

Hope to see you soon. And, why not plant the idea of joining the garden in a friend’s mind, or get your office mates to join forces for a “Friends Day” of volunteer work in the garden?  For information, please call Anne @ 616-6659.

Peace to all!
