The year in herbs is going quickly, and my chamomile is nearly three feet tall.

 

For those of you who attended our May meeting, you may have come away with some seedlings for expanding your own garden, and some ideas of new plants to try. We discussed some ways of garden journaling, and hopefully inspired a few of you to try to record your efforts in the garden. The tiny polaroid photos that Christy Quinlan shared look like a great way to add photos to help remember details, and the template-style record sheets are an easy spreadsheet to follow your garden maintenance. 

 

June's meeting will be a Garden Party at Karen and Mike Bewsey's home in Greenstone. We'll tour the garden and socialize for an hour or so, then share a potluck brunch. Please bring your favorite salad, finger sandwiches or cookies. The directions and gate code will follow in the email reminder about a week ahead. Don't miss it!

 

Stay cool now that the warmer weather is here. Don't forget your sunscreen or your hat!
