Hi Everyone,
Welcome to the 2021 gardening season. The garden committee met recently to start planning activities for the year. A little late compared to previous years, but just in time for the beginning of spring!
With current gathering restrictions, we will not be holding our usual in-person kickoff and registration meeting. Instead, we would like invite everyone to join us for a Zoom kickoff meeting. It will be a chance to review any thoughts about last year’s season, and more importantly, reconnect with your fellow gardeners ahead of the season.
The meeting will be Saturday, March 27, 2021 from 10:00 AM-11:30 AM. The Zoom meeting details have been provided by email. Please contact us if you need them re-sent.
In the meantime, if you could please confirm, as soon as possible, preferably before the 27th, that you are still interested in keeping your plot for this year, that would be helpful. This will let us know how many plots we have available for those on our wait list. On that note, before we assign plots to new gardeners, there is an opportunity, first-come, first-served, for returning gardeners to switch to one of the vacant plots. Please let us know before the meeting on the 27th, if you are interested in switching to one of 2, 5, or 7.
We will be making slight revisions to the registration forms and rules this year. This will be mainly about how we will try to manage attendance at our workdays, given the likelihood of continues restrictions on gatherings. Once the new forms are ready, we will let you know. Fees will be the same this year, and as we did last year, it will be easiest to collect those by etransfer.
Thanks everyone,
St. Barnabas Community Garden
