The community garden is thriving. At the Saturday farmers market you could find purple cabbage, spaghetti squash, tomatoes, onions, carrrots, and sweet corn. My family canned 18 quarts of carrots this week.

Montrose Community Garden held it’s first farmers market of the season. The carrots and onions went fast. Beets, cabbage, and zucchini were a plenty, too. Thanks to Fiskars for the bags to hold the veggies and thanks to the volunteers for all the awesome help.

Now that June is here it really feels like summer. School is out, the pool is open but the temperatures remain cool here in the 70’s. The garden is looking green. Volunteers have been meeting once a week to work together weeding and caring for the garden. We have obtained a new shed to hold all of our wonderful tools from Fiskars. My camera is out of commission at the moment so pictures will come later this month.
Plans are in the works for the annual Spud Fest in August. We are planning a ribbon in the afternoon. We have also been talking about having sweet corn and apples and maybe even fried potato chips at the farmers market this year! YUM!
