Summer Care for Your Plot

The problem of weeds and neglect is acute during the warm months when growth is rampant and many people leave town. If you are planning to be away, PLEASE NOTIFY THE OFFICERS and do one of the following: 

1. thoroughly mulch heavily

2. thoroughly weed and solarize (this involves laying clear plastic over your garden as a measure against nematodes (and weeds) -- ask for details

3. thoroughly weed and plant a cover crop (seeds available) -- again, ask for details.
