We sow our seeds multiple times a year to have a continual harvest.
Fall Growing Season

 

Harvest summer crops and sow fall harvest seeds. 

 

Our Fall Crops Include:

-Beets, Cabbage, Carrots, Collards Greens, Lettuces,               Parsnips, Peas and Turnips.

Watering is an essential element to our garden! Without water, our crops will not grow or thrive.
Weekly

 

Did you know, gardening is a natural stress relief and can help improve mental clarity? So, the next time you have a big exam or presentation, take a break and run your hands through the dirt, pull some weeds, and help yourself to some of the harvest - you may just find yourself more relaxed and prepared.

 

Watering, weeding, and tending to our harvest needs to be done regularly. 

Reduce, Reuse, Recycle. In the garden, nothing goes to waste. That includes pallets from deliveries around campus. We repurpose pallets to allow us to grow herbs and fruits in different ways.
Building Vertical Herb Planters

 

We're repurposing some wooden pallets to make a cool new vertical stand for small herbs. The hope is to free up the bigger boxes for more veggies.  

Our cold frame extends our growing season and allows us to harvest through winter and early spring.
Raising Cold Frame

 

Our cold frame will help us continue to produce and harvest fall and winter vegetables deeper into winter. As temperatures begin to fall, the plastic covering will keep soil temperatures high enough to keep our crops alive and growing.

Pollinators need loving homes too.
Construct Solitary Bee Homes

There are about 3500 species of bees that live in the US with the majority falling into a category known as "native bees", "wild bees" or "solitary bees". Solitary bees live on their own, not in colonies or cooperative hives. They collect their own pollen and nectar, and build their own homes, and lay their own eggs. They are not known to be aggressive bees and pose little risk of stinging.

We work our hardest to keep weeds out of our soil in the most organic method we know! Hand Pulling! It is theraputic and rewarding.
Soil Revitalization 

 

As always, we are thinking about the fundamentals of gardening: the soil. After enjoying several years of wonderful harvests, we are working to revitalize the soil that's been a bit uncared for. Therefore, with all of the crops we plant, we keep the soil in mind by integrating compost and mulch into the current boxes. 

If we keep the weeds out of the paths, we will keep them out of the beds! It also keeps our garden beautiful!
Clearing Out Paths

 

In between all the boxes, nasty weeds pop up and take over the whole path. It's our job to clear all that out and cover it with wood chips.
