Hey Permaculture Lovers,
Well we have so much to share. First of all our Caramel Apple sale was a huge success and of course we want to thank all those people who made it possible. Through this fundraiser we raised roughly about $290, which is pretty good for our first sale and of course all proceeds will go toward buying supplies for our garden.
On another note, we have news about our land plot. Due to natural circumstances we will no longer making a garden at our old spot, but have been moved to a land closer to the school that will ultimately get more sun light! (Which is pretty awesome, if we do say so ourselves)
As you can tell it's going to be a lengthy process, but of course we love the challenge! So keep tuning in Permaculture lovers for more exciting news on are garden!
Singing out!

We would recommend that anyone volunteering would bring the following:
1. Wear sweatpants (jeans might be better since they won't snag on branches)- it might get a bit chilly and there are also few bugs down there!
2. Gloves- if you have any bring some so that you wont get cut
3. Black trash bags- if you have any extra ones that we could use
4. Old brooms- if you happen to have any
5. Closed toe shoes- :) to protect your toes
Thank you for your interest!
