Progress
- We have 3 fruit trees planted on the fruit and vegetable side.
- All but one of the native plants beds are finished and planted.
- We started putting down an urbanite path. (Urbanite is repurposed broken concrete.)
- The edges have cardboard all around (except where the sprinkler system will be installed.)
Plans
- Continue putting in the urbanite path. --
We need volunteers to pick up some more urbanite from Gabe’s house. - On Saturday, we will plant the remaining 3 California native plants.
