Buckeye Lake Projects


The gardening season is winding down a bit over at the Takin' it to the Edge Community Garden at Water's Edge in Buckeye Lake. We're down to harvesting mostly tomatoes. The talk in the garden is focusing mostly on things we can do next gardening season. One idea is to begin to add for color to the garden. We start Wednesday evening by priming the picnic table. Chance are the table will eventually be painted blue or red.


The plan for 2010 is to expand the garden and take advantage of the space at the Tom Sawyer house next door. We will probably offer individual plots to the children and youth that are interested. Another focus will be to expand every gardener's knowledge of taking care of the gardens. One good example this year is the lack of consistancy when it comes to watering the plants. We're also dreaming about different plants, trees and shrubs we can start in the garden with more space. Perhaps we will plant an apple tree? Maybe blueberrie bushes? Some many reasons to be thankful and lots of reason to be excited about 2010!
