Mulch Day

Saturday, June 14 turned out to be a great day to mulch the gardens. With the mulch transport provided by Gerry Beckens, we tended to the gardens all morning. After our work Audrey treated us to a tour of her gardens. The roses were blooming with vigor. We oohed and ahhed our way around with Audrey providing us with the name of each of her over 200 roses.

That Time of Year

It is time to plant the square sidewalk planters and put up the hanging baskets on Monday, June 9 beginning at 10 AM. Here is a photo from June 2007 of Karen Buzzell. The new water cart will be out on Tuesday morning for its inaugural run. Wait until you see this sharp vehicle we will be driving on our water route. Mike Boone has added some detailing that sets off the cart in style. The planting is accomplished in assembly line fashion and takes about an hour. The village crew will put up the hanging baskets for us.

On Saturday, June 14 at 9:15 AM we will begin the mulch run to all the gardens that we tend.
Everyone is invited to bring their shovels and rakes for a morning of work and fellowship as we get the village spruced up for the summer season.

We look forward to surrounding the village with flowers that bring a touch of beauty to our streets.
