Great garden clean up effort!

 Thanks to all who came for coffee, bagels, talk, and work💚

Garden clean up Nov 12 @10am

 Hi all! Now it's time to put away the furniture and prepare our backyard space for the winter season. On Sunday, November 12th, the committee will be leading a garden clean up event, and we're asking for your help!  The clean up will involve putting furniture back into storage, taking down the sails and cleaning up dried leaves.

Some of the things to do:

 

1 - put wooden chairs and other delicate furniture away - probably in the meters room. To confirm with Board

2 - uproot Aster from bed 5

3 - collect garden waste in clear plastic bags

4 - remove sun sails...

 

We'll have coffee and bagels 

 

Thank you
