Hello Mount Washington Community!!!
Thanks again for making the CA native garden planting such a success. The plants are growing in well and the Verbena and Salvia are even starting to bloom! If you have a chance, stop by and check them out.
We have a couple upcoming spring projects we'd like to invite you to participate in.
The Spring Planting event on Thursday, May 12 from 10:15AM-2PM or until all the planting is finished. We will focus on filling in the planting areas on either side of the driveway from the gate to the playground. Lucky us, a gardener will be digging all the holes the day before, so we get to do the fun part and plant the holes with Lavender, Rockrose, Rosemary and Sage. You will go home smelling like a french potpourri : )
Here are the tools we could use to get the job done: shovels, hand spades, gloves.
The MULCH IT! event will be held on Thursday, June 2, from 8:30AM-12PM or until all the mulch has been dispersed. We will be applying mulch to the planting beds. The mulch will be provided to us free of charge from the Sustainable Schoolyard division of the LAUSD. Mulch is great to use in gardens because it controls weeds, assists in retaining soil moisture and provides nutrients to the soil as it breaks down. Here are the tools we need for this event: wheelbarrows, rakes & thick garden gloves. Don't forget to bring water and snacks if desired.
Feel free to refer direct other parents and community members here, who might be interested. The more the merrier!! Please RSVP by May 7. to kf@kathleenferguson.com or 323.221.2248.
We hope to see you there!
