Pollinator garden work party

Hayward Community Gardens Apiary 24919 Whitman St, Hayward, CA, United States

Weather should be fantastic. This will be a pivotal week for the garden as we head into summer. 

  • Pull weeds and cut back the Vetch ( a great green compost)
  • Install the new watering system.  Most of the bits are purchased. 
  • Plant Lavender borders. I have several flats of lavender sprouted in 4" pots that will make a fantastic border later this year.
  • Plant any other plants that are brought to the garden.
