A few improvements around the garden this month:
Kasey and Eliza with the first of our new green debris bins- reusing pallets.

The guys from Wells Fargo IT department widening the rainwater culvert. Other folks from the group also shoveled out the silt and reset the rocks. We're ready for the rain!
