This past month we had a very successful work party at the Santa Clara Community Garden (SCCG), preparing the composting area for coming work shops and adding to the compost lasagna bed. The crew, mostly from Huerto de la Familia, emptied the garden veggie material bins and added coffee grounds to the lasagna. The garden shed ramp was also improved to make it safer.
The lasagna bed from last year produced a number of squash, tomatoes, and potatoes that are now being distributed through the food pantry at St. Matthews Church. Two very large pumpkins will be prizes in anticipation of Halloween, and pies.
The dates for the last three compost workshops at SCCG in 2019 are: October 19 (OSU Compost Demonstration), November 16 (Cover Crops), December 14 (Pruning).
All workshops begin at 10 am and last one to two hours. Call Peter (541-321-0798) for more information.
