Community Garden Harvest


A few of our great volunteers working to control weeds the old fashioned way: by hand cultivation. In this age of Roundup and high labor costs, this time-tested technique is not seen too often anymore, at least outside of organic production.

And then the "fruits" of their labor! These will be delivered to the Food Bank tomorrow. Pink eye purple hull peas are seen in the crate in the upper left. There are also green tomatoes, cukes, squash, eggplant, and peppers.

Bumper harvest! It was a lot of hot work but worth it in the end.

Well done! The emphasis on 'community' is what it is all about.
