Bellingen High School Community Garden - supervisors

Dear Gardeners - we need to establish a roster of supervisors for our new Gardening Time at the High School Garden which will be from 5-7pm Wednesdays during summer. Gardening tasks are listed below-it is up to each supervisor what they feel comfortable doing. We will advertise the new time on FB, the Transition newsletter and in a newspaper article so hopefully will get a few helpers each week.

Here are the dates we need supervisors for-please let me know if you can fill a monthly spot. If you would rather just turn up as a helper when available, please do! If you would like to supervise and need shed keys for access to tools etc please let me know and i will copy them for you. Any supplies needed, contact Sid Hazell-hazells1@bigpond.com

 What needs to be done over the next few months

• Frequent mowing
• Frequent whipper snipping
• Frequent hosing of concrete paths
• Nut grass weeding
• Picking veggies to keep them coming up
• Raised beds – need increased organic matter in them before replanting (they tend to get dry and under-nourished)
• Someone to support Sinclair with the hydroponics (contact Sinclair via FB to see what times he will be there)

NB **We need to do about 10 hours work a week in order to keep our garden maintained**

PS Our next BCGA committee meeting will be 23rd Feb @ 5pm.
