After a couple hours of shoveling snow this morning (thankfully light and fluffy!), I’m back to ordering seeds.\u00a0 Above are some of the seeds coming in (check out Baker Creek Heirloom Seeds if you haven’t yet!) including many for our Spring Plant Sale<\/strong> on Mother’s Day weekend.\u00a0 As I order seeds, everything goes in a spreadsheet (seen below) that also shows seed source and that\u00a0 column E will help us out when the plants come back and we can sort them by collection.\u00a0 I continue to frantically order seeds and plants for spring which really isn’t that far away.\u00a0 Larry H., Big John and Terry were in as well for snow removal and Holiday Light Show (HLS)<\/strong> related work.\u00a0 Bobby K. was also in later.<\/p>\n

We had a solid volunteer turnout with Alan and Marv painting.\u00a0 Cathy E. (along with Zorro and Mocha!) and Barb continue to work on various projects and Kathy P. was in for some work as well.\u00a0 Our carpenters of Ron Y., Dave, Vern and Jim had plenty to do and we also saw Laura and Rollie.\u00a0 Dick H. did a nice job plowing our parking lot at the Horticulture Center too.\u00a0 Our Horticulture Therapy Committee (Darcie, Karen, Dr. Tom, Sheri, Laura and myself) also met to plan for some programs and our Horticultural Therapy Symposium on August 6th this year.<\/p>\n

the Holiday Light Show (HLS)<\/strong> continues to come down efficiently as weather allows<\/p>\n
