Exciting News!

Hey Guys!
I just wanted everyone to know that Tom Macchi made watering the garden sooooo much easier. 
Instead of having to run up and down the hill10 times, he hooked up a hose to the back of the trailers by Spruance and ran the hoses through the woods directly to the garden, so our hose will always be right there and can stay right there. He also bought us a wonderful nozzle attachment.
Here's how to work it. 
The water is constantly on. We are using the timer device to turn it off and on.
 (Refer to picture) 
(when you are holding the hose with sprayer away from you)
When the zero is facing you, the water is turned off. Turn it clockwise to any of the other numbers, which are time increments, to turn it on. The very end of the nozzle turns as well to adjust the spray. 
If anyone has any questions, let me know.
I'm around Murphy most of the time. And my number is 610.506.5660
Happy Watering and Eating!

New Photos

Thank you to everyone who are working extra hard in the garden this summer! With all the rain that's been going around last week there wasn't really a need to water, so I hope you guys enjoyed the break. Its going to be a hot one this week so the plants will definitely need hydration (but don't forget to do the same for yourself).

There seems to be some bunny problems nibbling on the leaves of some of the vegetables, but thanks to some of our gardeners for acting quickly and protecting our garden!

Some innovative thinking to protect the veggies.  Bottom cut bottles.

STAY COOL THIS WEEK!
