So on a sunny 60 degree day in late November (I know, right?), Sam, Brad and I finished the paths around The Urban Farm and are now done with Phase II construction. The target for growing will be to sow some seed like spinach, lettuce, carrots, radishes and peas in March of 2017 to prepare for vegetable sales on May 1 for the Senior Farmer’s Market Voucher Program, and to hopefully have some extra for public sale and inclusion into Meals on Wheels and lunches at the Senior Center.
Special THANKS! to Athens Hocking Recycling Center for some more donated mulch. I took some pics for you all to enjoy.
Phase I, the herb bed, is doing great. It is still being harvested for use in the Kitchen
The winter rye cover crop is starting to germinate. Hoping it gets enough root growth to survive the winter
See you all in the spring.
