Orchard Happenings and Updates 🌱 Hello, Gardeners! I hope your gardening season is off to a wonderful start! Colorado’s fickle spring showers have a habit of turning into hail-dealing monsters before you know it. Our next newsletter will include some techniques for protecting your garden from hail, but because this weekend looks like rain I want to leave you with these two resources with information about protecting your gardens. In observance of Memorial Day Weekend, there will be no gardening workshops at Weaver Creek Park this weekend. We hope you enjoy the holiday and take some time to relax and recharge—see you back in the garden next week! We will be back on May 31, with a workshops on Irrigation, Weed Identification, and planting! Later in June, we will be hosting our annual late season plant sale! We aim for a late season sales to help gardeners replenish plants damaged by late spring hail storms. Stay tuned for more updates as we get further into the growing season.
Community garden heads up! 💧Great news—our community garden’s irrigation system is now up and running! It’s currently set to water twice a day for 5 minutes. We’ll be fine-tuning the schedule in the coming weeks to make sure all plots are getting the moisture they need. In the meantime, please keep an eye on your garden beds and hand water if things are looking a bit dry. Your attention during this transition period will help ensure everything gets off to a healthy start this season! |
