Today at the garden, we took advantage of the beautiful day and planted some more fence pockets. Because some of our larger succulents have been removed from the pockets (hopefully getting planted in other gardens) we got smaller succulents that are more difficult for those who pass by to remove. We collected some more large tin cans that we painted and will be drilling water holes in on Wednesday.
Check out the different types of pockets and succulents that we planted today.
We're experimenting with different sizes and materials to see what kind of pockets the plants like the best.

One of the favorite volunteer tasks of our gardeners is watering. So, we've converted our south lot into perennial flowers that don't mind lots and lots of watering.
Above, Gloria is showing me the kinds of cut foods that the worms enjoy.
Visitors and new volunteers are welcomed at the garden anytime we are open. Above, you'll see someone passing by and chatting with volunteers who explain what they're planting.
Ty, leads a skill share on planting succulents. Join us in the garden any Monday, Wednesday or Friday from 12-4:30pm. All are welcome!
