Garden Chores from Miss Sarah!

Silverwood Garden Chores

10/13 – 10/19


If you have some extra time before carpool or would like to volunteer on short notice, we have some jobs for you:)


*Know anyone with red wiggler worms or some extra hay?

Let me know...

Four Beds Outside Greenhouses

l They're weed free but need some good sifting-know anyone with a little extra energy? Send em' out! Screens are located in the garden shed and root chunks/ weed remnants can be put in the wheelbarrows to be composted later

Other Beds near Parking lot

l Weed!

l Pick any carrots that seem to be ready (and enjoy!)

l Harvest the corn stalks and put aside so we can use them for decoration this autumn. Check with Seniors to see if they want to use for Halloween Walk.

l You can weed the perennial beds closest to the parking lot but leave the perennials there. I believe there are a bunch of herbs, flowers, blueberry and raspberry bushes that would be great to see come to life again.

→ Weeds that are pulled out can be piled next to the existing yard waste bin, near the shed, to be composted at a later time.

Thanks for all your Help!
