October @ The Alma Garden!

Hello Alma Gardeners, 

A rainy Fall has officially arrived in our city and in the garden!

Harvest is waning and we’re just about ready to put the garden to rest for the winter season.

Here are your garden updates:

WATER SHUT OFF 

We will be shutting off the water in the garden sometime in late October just before the frosts begin. We do this so the water lines won’t freeze.

CLEANING UP YOUR BEDS

Cleaning up your beds cuts down on rotting vegetation and gives the garden a tidy look through the winter months.

"Can we still garden during the Winter?"
'Yes, feel free to garden during the winter months, but remember, the water will be turned off.'

PLEASE ENSURE THAT YOUR BEDS ARE CLEANED UP BY NOVEMBER 1ST! 

Greens waste goes in the greens waste bins  - make sure to shake off soil first!

Feel free to add fallen leaves to your beds as cover.

NEXT YEAR - 2025 SEASON

As we all know, our garden is a temporary one.

We hope to keep the garden going into the 2025 season and beyond!

Keep an eye on your emails in Feb/March, as we will be reaching out regarding registration.

Happy Harvest Season!
