Marching Into the Garden Season: Updates for Mid Shooks Run Community Garden
Gardening Enthusiasts!
Winter may have painted the garden with stillness, but beneath the surface, seeds of preparation have been sprouting all season long! While the beds lay quiet, dedicated volunteers have been working hard behind the scenes—planning planting schedules, brainstorming workshops, and gearing up for the vibrant months ahead.
The Official Growing Season Starts Today!
Spring is knocking, and it’s time to dig in! The official start to our gardening season is March 1st, and we’re ready to watch the garden come to life. Whether you’re sowing seeds, preparing beds, or simply soaking up the early spring sun, we’re excited to grow alongside you.
2025 Membership Fee Deadline Passed—Act Fast if You Missed It!
A quick reminder: the deadline for returning gardeners to submit their 2025 membership fees was yesterday, February 28th. If you missed it but still want to stay involved, please reach out ASAP. We don’t want anyone to miss out on another fantastic season with us, but we need to be fair to our waitlist.
