Re: Madison MAN garden stuff this week

Tuesday July 11 - sorry for the late communication! We'll meet today at The Social Justice Center and figure out what needs doing. I think mostly we wait, weed, and water when needed. Also, feel free to respond to this email.

Who needs a lawn mowed? We can get ahead of it! 

Cindy - The veggies here are doing great! Mulberry harvesting was harder and much less productive than expected, so we should brainstorm some ideas for next year to maximize the bounty.
Esty - can always use help weeding and managing her garden
Karin - Artist is continuing to work here on landscaping projects
SJC - The raised accessible bed next to the parking lot is really very shallow, and needs dirt. Even then, we won't be able to grow anything with deep roots (like native prairie plants) because of its construction, which consists of filler and a liner. Filling the entire bed is cost prohibitive at this time, we can discuss ways to find/fund soil.

Hi! This week, June 19-25 I'll be taking off most garden activities due to time crunches and trying to spare a crud back before circus performances. The rest of my schedule is wonky with work and rehearsals -- but please get in touch if you need a ride or contact info for someone.

I will be at The Social Justice Center on Tuesday, but in the morning 10 to 12, possibly longer, making the gardens look tidy for this weekend's Jubilee on June 24. Doing some light construction, weeding and adding some tomato, pepper and oregano to the raised bed. I won't be available for our usual Tuesday 4 pm check in, I have my day/night job.

Do we want to harvest any of Cindy's mulberries? I can help with that, depending on work schedule, but any more branch removal will have to wait until next week. Let me know if you're up for the task and need to borrow a bow saw.

I'll ask Esty to coordinate with Ech.

Artist is working with Karin, I'll remind him to get in touch with Imru for help.

I've been at Barb's every week, so we're in contact, I'm taking this week off.

Get in touch with questions. Thanks everyone - y'all are so great!! - L.

Hi! Friday - 3 pm - weeding and planting at Esty's (soil delivered and applied to beds). We're hoping to remove a small tree also. Text me at 608-332-5834

Please join us Tuesday, at 4 pm at the SJC for our regular check in.

Before that, Barb, Artist and I will check out a new spot over in the Wingra neighborhood. This will be Artist's main work plot but we'll need to start planting quickly once we've checked in with the owner, maybe even that day??. We'll up date  you at the 4pm meeting or by text if we can started immediately.

Maple has been covering SJC - Thank You!! And gave us some sedum which we're trying in the raised bed. Thank you!!

Cindy - we'll check in on all your projects - I'll loop you into a text with Artist.

Hi all - 

This is an email to everyone I’ve tried to add to a listserv. Can you please check all your spam filters for email from garden@at-home.coop and click ’not junk’ or whitelist it however you do that? If you just don't 


not all of you are involved in all of these projects, so feel free to get in touch with questions, projects of your own, or other EG stuff. And please reply when you get this so we know it's working for you

Cindy - I need to check in with you and Scott and Artist, what help do you need? 

Tuesday 6:30 pm Lisa will be at Social Justice Center to do some planting and weeding -- Maple, let me know if you need anything from me, I can water that day if you want. If no one else has contacted me about the raised bed by the pantry, I will go ahead and plant tomatoes (if I can find determinant), cukes (if i can find bush) and bean (if I can find bush)

Wednesday 2-4 pm- we'll be picking up a load of soil and taking it to Esty's house. Anyone interested in working there that day to get soil in the beds and perhaps plant if y'all are interested, please get in touch with her, your workgroup has swapped info. 


Thursday mid morning - Lisa will be working at Barb's house (this schedule has to be confirmed). Otherwise, I'll be working on the SJC, they'd like to have plants out front.


Hope to see you this week! 

Thanks,
Lisa and Stephanie
