We decided to skip our work party on Tuesday.
Friday’s work party found two of us in the greenhouse and two more outside.
Joseph and I worked in the main garden, with me pulling grasses, and Joseph uprooting yellow dock. Note the pile he’s already accumulated center front. That’s puppy shadow in red.
In the greenhouse, most of the seeds have been planted, sprouted, with more and more of them needing to be given more room in larger containers. Marita and Daniel here. The work of aligning with nature, spring 2020, continues.
Note fire in firebox. Still cold out Friday morning. Especially cold last night, somewhere in the 20s. Fire all night, too. Here’s what it looked and felt like today, Sunday, mid morning, cozy inside, sun already high, and nary a cloud in the sky.
We are going to have two openings in the next few months. Just as with the plants, there are cycles of ebb and flo with residents in Green Acres Village. Two people are interested, even prior to the fb post, see below. One of them, a woman recommended by John who used to live here, is coming from New York City to check us out in late spring. The other spot may be taken by a wonderful young woman who attended several of our Community Dinners last summer. This is actually the usual way people enter here as residents, by getting to know us ahead of time.
But just in case one or both of these fall through, here’s the post I put up on fb, to announce the openings.
Oops! Just noticed it says start up for Community Dinners is April 4th. It’s actually Thursday, April 7th.
