The planning begins...

We held our first meeting of 2011 recently. We discussed plans for the 2011 garden and the searching through seed catalogues has begun. Our garden plot soil has been amended with the addition of compost and used potting mix. We will surely see improved harvest yields from these amendments as well as enjoy the improved soil texture. Last year, the soil crusted over like clay and we had to help the seedlings break through!

We plan on increasing the area of our garden slightly and plan to add a raspberry patch.

We also have some other exciting projects planned - to be revealed later on!

If you are an employee of the Lethbridge Research Centre, email lrcgarden@yahoo.ca to volunteer. We will host a volunteer and information meeting in March.
