November Saturday for Compost and Community

11/20/2020

 
"I have not seen a day like this all season.  Good learning day, wonderful weather and a steady stream of of members busy in their gardens and physically spaced with masks."  Neal Weissman wrote to the Board.

It did everyone's heart good to stay apart and yet also work together for the Compost Committee! 

We saw a few folks we haven't seen all season since everyone is being super careful.  The Compost Committee carefully took in and weighed 1845 pounds of organic materials: leaves, and garden clippings to create large compost piles to cook all winter. 

In addition, members of the landscape committee planted bulbs, and we got a big head start on the collection of hoses. On Sunday they were all drained and tied up and stored for winter. 

Enjoy a few pictures from this beautiful day.
