It's October. That means we have reach the end of the 2022 gardening season.
Time to clean out your plot and prepare it for the garden's closing on October 28.
A few tips from the Closing Committee:
In order to have the area prepared for winter and then spring 2023, each gardener is responsible for clearing their plot and surrounding area. All plots must be cleared and inspected by NOON on FRIDAY October 28.
Any plot that hasn't passed close-out inspection by NOON on FRIDAY October 28 will be forfeited, and that gardener will not be permitted to garden in 2023.
Garden inspections will be done from October 13 thru NOON October 28. No inspections before October 13 and none after noon October 28.
If you have a special situation, please contact Maria Antoniw to discuss. If before October 27th, you do not need to be present when your garden is checked, but you must come back and address any issues the inspector brings back to you so it can be reinspected by October 28th in order to be cleared for 2023.
Inspections on Oct 27th and October 28th must be in person – there is no time for re-inspections.
The biggest reason for failing inspections every year is weeds – in the plot and the assigned paths. PLEASE weed before we inspect so we don’t have to call you to come back.
Thank you,
Closing Committee
