New Installations (July 09)

Fresh off a trip to the garden store, the MBA garden team has a host of exciting new crops and features ready for installation:
  • A seven-foot tall bird feeder with four available feeding areas
  • Two Hummingbird feeders
  • A Kestrel nesting box
  • Two wide range sprinklers with self-timed water cutoff
  • A brass hose splitter
  • Two varieties of ground cover for the bare space near the flower beds
  • A copious supply of mulch, manure, and bird seed

We are grateful to the Mothers' Club for their continued support and generosity in helping us to grow our garden into a proud piece of MBA. All of the above purchases will aid in the ongoing transformation of the garden and creek into a true microcosm of nature. If you have any suggestions or ideas for future purchases, installations, crops, or developments you would like to see in the garden, please drop us an email.

On the note of a microcosm of nature, we were excited to find a new guest rabbit living amongst the squash plants in bed #1. Pictures to come.

How To Update The Garden Log

To update the Garden Log (found at the bottom of this page), go to Google Docs and sign in as "mbagarden". Email mbagarden[at]gmail.com to get the password.

Alternatively, you can request access to the Garden Log from your own google account by emailing mbagarden[at]gmail.com. This option works better if you're often signed into your own gmail or google account while online.
