Houghton Valley Community Garden Newsletter

14 October, 2010

We have dug all the community garden plots for this season and all but 2 are full of veggies and herbs. We planted a loquat tree also. What’s left now is space for family plots, so come and claim one if you want. The Houghton Valley school fair is on the 30th and we are thinking of raffling off plots and giving the proceeds to the school. we also plan to have a photo display board showing how the garden developed. If anyone has any other creative ideas or can help on the day please let me know.

Also you may not be aware that as well as the Houghton Valley Community Garden, there is also the Alice Kreb cottage garden (by the beacon on View Rd Extension reserve). The garden has silver beet, potatoes and other veggies and flowers growing in it.

The photo is taken two weekends ago at the Houghton Valley Community Garden. See you Sunday.

Cheers, Grant
