Weed in the Rain!

Hey gang busters

Well, new york is officially going to be under water if the forecast for the next few days is right…more rain?! Good for the garden but not so good for the gardener! Never mind – we are going to try and brave it this Sunday and do some much needed gardening and weeding on Jefferson Street. Our little garden has suffered some major neglect of late (babies tend to take precedence over weeding…!) but with your help we can restore it to its former glory!

Help us out this Sunday, June 28th at 1pm on Jefferson Street, between Wyckoff & Irving - bring gardening gloves if you have them, and tools to whack weeds! There are some beautiful wildflowers growing amidst the mugwort, so let’s give them a chance to shine, people!

See you Sunday!

Rain Day Today

Interpid Gardeners
