Hello All,
Because there is so much going on in April and we don't want to compete with Earthfest or Easter holidays, the "Whys and Hows of Lawn Transformation: Four Perspectives" meeting will be held on May 15th, 2011. Same time (approx. 2-5 p.m.) same place (my Cleveland Hts. home/yard).
Rather than skip a meet-up altogether, I offer this for the date (April 17) as set. We currently have direct seeded crops under a hoop house that was inexpensive and easy to make. By the meet-up date, we will have a small straw bale greenhouse set up for seedlings started indoors and as a cold frame for cold tolerant plants.
There are still lots of seeds from the January swap looking for homes. Some could/should be started now. Bring any seeds you'd like to swap or just come and get some. I also have kale seedlings from last fall that need thinning.
As to our yard transformation: We are in the process of observing how water flows from redirected downspouts and may have begun mapping/and layout for the rain garden/habitat. We will save discussion of native plants until the May meeting.
Peas,
Please rsvp if you plan on coming out.
Mari
