Good morning relatives, thank you for your patience with my delayed email this week. For variety of reasons, we do not have our ducks aligned well to participate in the discovery days program tomorrow, so We will only be in the garden. With the turn of the seasons, evidenced by this prelude to fall and the rockets cacophony of cicadas, we know it is time to do some fall planting. There is of course grass to remove, but hopefully we will also add carrots, radishes, green beans, and a few other delights to the garden tomorrow. There are lots of tomatoes, peppers, green beans, and the beginnings of an okra harvest coming. We will do some more formal Harvest assessment work tomorrow, following up on the green pepper sorting of last week.
It is my observation that some students are reluctant to work in the garden because they are in shorts and the grasses are prickly. We really need you to be in long pants or long socks. Gardening is just one of those activities where you're going to get prickled, muddy, and perhaps slightly uncomfortable.
If you haven't been in a while, we miss you! We would love to see you again. Folks who have fallen quite short on attendance may need to think through make up sessions in order to receive the summer stipend, but the fall stipend is still entirely yours.
I'll see you at nine! I look forward to chatting with you right on up to noon
