We had our first meeting of the year and did the work of doing the overall plan for the Demo Garden this year. Over the next 2 weeks we will have each sub-committee meet to plan the details of what will be planted in each bed. For now, I can share with you the overall plans.
Just the quick rundown:
Bed 1: Half orange/yellow tomatoes and half red tomatoes with the 2 raised areas for unique basils
Bed 2: Currently shallots, etc. We will plant some bush beans and then fall broccoli/cauliflower.
Bed 3: Currently garlic. Fall root veggies, salad greens and parsnips.
Bed 4: Half vertical garden and half eggplant trial. (You better believe there will be recipes coming this year!)
Bed 5: “Snacking” Vegetables/Children’s Garden
Bed 6: Currently half garlic. Pizza Garden
Bed 7: Grape TBD, underplanted with various thymes
Bed 8: Perennial Herbs
Bed 9: Sweet Potatoes
Bed 10: Horseradish and Rhubarb
Containers, Entry, Lattice, etc: Flowers, some herbs
You will notice that the Family of 4 Garden is taking a break this year. I think we have plenty of other fun things to take it’s place!
