November- plot checks, winter wreath making invite

Anna and I have begun our November garden plot checks and there are some lovely garden beds out there! It's amazing how fantastic fall gardens can be in San Francisco- some rain, some sun and warm weather and the greens respond. Of course, so do the weeds! Plan some time in the next week to visit your garden- weed the plots and pathways, remove snails (baby snails are plentiful right now), and consider planting fava beans, lettuce, peas, or radishes. November is also a great time to get your spring strawberries in the ground (make sure to buy full sized, not Alpine varieties).

We have our last special event of the year coming up on December 3. RSVP on Eventbrite and join us to make a winter wreath to take home.

If you run out of weeds at your garden and are eager to spend more time outside weeding, we can use help this winter at the Ft. Scott Community Garden. We're there most Monday afternoons and Thursday mornings. If you want to help, please email or text me ahead of time. 








Here are a few photos from the garden this fall:
