Rupini & Sport Finals

On Saturday, after clearing out some of the tomato patch we prepared the soil and re-planted the rupini (a leafy green vegetable) that had been grown from seeds that were started in another bed about a month ago. We also harvested more tomatoes, green beans and vegetable leaves.

It was a beautiful day after raining on and off for over a week it was nice to be back in the community garden. The garden is located near a community center, playground and park, where they also hold well attended local track and sports events. There have been large crowds for the sport finals that have been going on for a few weeks now, some of the local parents with their children visit our garden to see what we're doing and ask questions about what we're growing there.

In November we'll be moving to the greenhouse, where we raise seedlings to plant in the garden.The greenhouse is located on the roof of a downtown school.
