Hello Gardeners,

Finally we got some proper summer weather this last month, and it is looking like it will continue with August :)

Here are a few updates:

WATERING WHILE AWAY

If you're going to be out of town for more than a couple days, here are the three best ways to keep your plants happy and well-watered:

1. Ask a friend or family member to help water for you while you are away

2. Post a request along with your bed numbers on the notice board

3. Make a sign out of a piece of cardboard that says ‘Please Water Me’ and leave it on your bed for other gardeners to see

PLANNING FOR FALL & WINTER

It might seem strange, but now is the right time to start planning and planting your fall and winter crops so you can make the most of the growing season.

West Coast seeds have a great resource which explains and provides helpful tips for what to plant for the fall and winter season. You can find the document HERE.

Stay cool out there!
