Winter season has finally arrived with it blown in our winter crops! This season we have had a great variety of new crops and projects that we are working on. To start of we got a few new crops on pots. We have added oregano, rosemary, a rosebush, and a lemon tree to our mint and basil plants.
In the beginning of November we cleaned out the beds and added new crops to our beds. We planted radishes, on the outer edges of our beds again this year. For our winter crops we have, broccoli, cauliflower, spinach, beets, carrots, kale, English Peas, arugula, kale, lettuce and cabbage. The bell pepper, banana pepper plant and the jalapeno plants have been giving a lot of peppers this season as well.
Due to the amount of knowledge that comes with tending the garden we created a fun group system with club officers and the members. The members have been divided into five groups that are led by our officers. Because of our amazing club leaders and their groups we have been able to get the compost going again. We made a calendar for the dates that everyone will be getting some scraps from SAGE during lunch and taking them down to the compost. This is what it looks like:
Mondays- Sara Aranda and the apples
Tuesdays- Ana Perez and the sprouts
Wednesdays- Vivian Nguyen and the carrots
Thursdays- Mary Frances and the Chimpmunks
Fridays- Victoria Eastep and the cucumbers
Thank you for tuning in and don't forget to come back next week for more news!
Love,
UA Permaculture Awareness Club
