Weekly Meetings to develop a PLAN
Each Saturday, at 9:00am under the shelter / ramada at the school garden there will be a meeting to re-organize the middle school garden into a hybrid of a community garden and a youth educational garden project. Everyone is welcome to attend and participate. The meetings were put on hold during the summer, but we hope to start them again.
Weekly Gardening
Come join us every Saturday and Monday - Thursday, to work in the garden. We have tools! Just dress appropriately; if you can, bring some gloves, wear long pants and closed toe shoes. Volunteer, Peter Earley, will be present in the garden to give directive and guidance for planting and projects to improve the facilities. You can start your own plot and harvest the rewards.
The gardening sessions start about 8 AM and run until 10 or 11 AM. People are welcome to come anytime during these hours. You don't have to be present right at eight. You don't have to stay for the whole length of time.
Friday Tianguis / Community Market
We try and have weekly sales at La Manzanilla community market or Tianguis. This year - 2023 - we had lots of camote (a type of yam) In the past, friends brought starfruit and bananas from their yards to sell!
Even when we have lots of greens growing, our garden has limited production and we frequently sell out. We plan to be there every Friday by 10 am, during the winter season. Look for our little table on the north side of Café Del Mar.
