Apologies for getting behind in tending the garden. There was a death in the family and I couldn’t get out there for a bit. I will be back out there soon tending again.

We could really use some volunteer help with watering the garden. Watering doesn't take skill or knowledge of plants. It is a family friendly activity that you can do any time the park is open. There is a watering can in the wooden box by the restrooms and rain barrels on the east side of the restrooms, and a hydrant with a hose in the pollinator garden. Rain barrels save us water and money but either are okay. If you are willing to help us with watering please fill out the sign up genius linked below so that we know which days are covered and which aren't. This task helps us immensely and is necessary for the success of the garden. Thank you.
