Hi Sheila,
We have completely cleared out the front garden and will be starting fresh. It was taken completely over with weeds this summer. I wanted to touch base with you to see if you had any “connections” to help us get started.
I would like to use cinder block to make some raised beds. I have also put word out to the master gardeners that we will be in need of short growing native plants. We will be creating a Native plant/wildlife habitat garden. If you know of any grants that we could apply for let me know.
Any input that you have would be appreciated.
I would also like to get some donations of good bagged mulch and top soil. The mulch that we get from the board is so full of weeds, and I don’t want to go down that road again.
Thanks!
