Pruning

This past Weekend we had a Pruning Workshop led by Tony. I didn't get to make it personally, but I heard some good learning was had by all. Here are Tony's Links to some good pruning guides. This page can now serve as a bit of a reference when it comes to pruning. So ENJOY!

How-To prune things like GRAPES, CURRANTS, and PEACHES

How-To for PRUNING SHRUBS. and another one HERE

Here is a site for ROSE PRUNING / CARE

Here is a site for LAWN CARE

This site offers articles on PERENNIALS, FLOWERS, and many OTHER GARDENING TOPICS. New articles are added monthly

And Tony recommends this book, if your like me and enjoy reading non-fiction and love to have something you can hold in your hand and flip through. Read the book Understanding Perennials

And there you have it. Some guides to Pruning.

How to become a member of our garden

The process of becoming a member of the Summit Street Community Garden is very simple. CLICK HERE to view and download our member guidelines. And below is the abridged version, just the nuts and bolts of the process:

If you are interested in becoming a member of the Summit Street Garden, all you have to do is attend a meeting and get a fifteen minute orientation right after. Meetings are held monthly, either on Sunday or Saturday mornings, from April to October, with one weekday evening meeting. Our next meeting is Sunday, May 17th at 11am in the garden (if it rains it is held at 96 Summit Street). At the meeting you can give us your name, email, phone, address, etc, and you will be added to the email list. Garden members are expected to do one open hour session per year (4 hour session) to remain active members.
