The Community Garden

the community garden has become very popular this year, all 6 of the raised gardens have been claimed for the season already! many vegetables and flowers have been planted and some have already been harvested (aka the asparagus). the garden has automatic-drip watering system in place, so even if you are not at pinecrest as much as you'd like, you know that your plants can keep on growing. even if you haven't planted anything at the garden, located up the hill on the east side of the pool in a fenced in area, be sure to stop by and check on the gardens progress. by next year we hope to have a little garden shed set up near the garden when we can store "community tools" such as rakes and shovels. so if you feel like doing some work on your site, but forgot to bring up the garden stuff, just borrow, use and return tools from the shed.

the good news is that, even if you didn't get a chance to plant any veggies in the community garden this year, you'll still have access to some great, fresh foods being grown right in the neighborhood at the Mountain Chick-a-dee Farms. Mountain Chick-a-dee Farms is an independent project that will be making fresh produce available for purchase on a daily basis at the Club House. Ask Judy for details.
