Petoskey Community Garden's Blog

…growing food for the community starting Spring 2010.

Things we are collecting…

The community garden is still looking to find a few things to make the garden more complete.  Do you have any extras you’d like to give away?  Please contact us.  Here’s our wishlist:

  • picnic table
  • bench
  • lumber to build beds
  • tarps
  • 6 mm plastic sheeting
  • deer fencing
  • and, of course, we’ll take good ol’ fashioned money too!

Kudos to all on getting Petoskey’s Victory Garden up and running!! Dave and I enjoyed the inspirational movie “Dirt”. I would recommend it to everyone (especially schools) to see this exceptional film.

After purusing some wonderful recycled junk garden art eye-candy websites; I thought that having a junk garden art community challenge/fundraiser would be fun!!

For inspiration see http://www.faq.gardenweb.com/faq.junk and http://www.gardenjunk.org.A lot of eye candy, techniques, and are, amazingly, FREE.

This is great Anne! I, too, enjoyed “Dirt! The Movie.” It was really great to go out and spread compost the next day at a farm I work on. It felt like good work.

I was going to have a sign making party for plot owners on May 22nd. Do you want to make junk art that day as well? A day solely dedicated to junk art would be great too! Email me if you’re interested…jen_schaap@hotmail.com
