yo Devin!

 

we are READY for a garden party at West Campus! (on the empty end of the hillside, where we had our Ojai Permaculture Guild musings and brainstorming about what could happen

there ... maybe twenty yards beyond the area where the raised bed garden will eventually go.)

 

I got the temporary waterline in last week ... and now all we need is a party to bring in a couple of pickup truck loads of aged horse manure -- or equivalent value of composted chicken or rabbit manure --

 

over say a 12 feet by 20 or 40 ft area --

 

and a couple of wheelbarrows to haul our topsoil mix from across campus ... and we can lay down the compost and topsoil and plant corn and bean seeds ... which I can soak in water a couple of days in advance.

 

and maybe lay down some wood chip mulch on top.

 

[I am not turning over any soil, just putting heavily rich soil on top of existing ground, for our interim 2008 garden. and not laying down any gopher mesh barrier ... just going

simply this year.]

 

I also have winter squash seedlings, which will be ready to go into the ground in a couple of weeks.
