Super fun garden club this morning. Zoe found our first monarch caterpillar! We were able to hook up our hose to water a very thirsty garden along with ourselves. We filled the rain barrel so we can inspect for a potential leek. We harvested a snack of cucumbers and sugars snap peas and got to see what’s been coming up since last time. We scoped out what we need to address next time. We desperately need to do some deadheading, mulching, weeding and maybe plant a fall container with cooler weather crops for the later part of the season.🥗🫜
