Green Market

Thanks to everyone who came to the Green Market!  It was a huge success!  Thank you to our sponsors for helping to make the event happen, and to the community for supporting green initiatives at the school.  It was a healthy and fun fundraiser for the gardens and for the 5th grade graduation.  Pictures will soon follow.

At the gardens, the Garden Club is sowing quick crops (radishes and lettuces) and trying some things for the first time (strawberries and luffa).  With only two months to go, our growing season is winding down.  The banana trees are not, however.  Almost impervious to seasons, they are blooming and stretching out new hands in many directions.  The papayas and mulberry trees are fruiting as well.  

Family Weeding Fridays are still happening.  With no big projects looming, it's an easy weeding/watering time.  There's still an abundance of food in the garden.  If you help out, you can take some home.  If you're not already on the email list, please send an email to southpointepta@gmail.com.  See you in the gardens!
