Sweet summa' time is finally coming to a close and fall is right around the corner! There have been many changes to the garden including preparing for the fall garden crops and adding YOUR favorites like sweet potatoes, white potatoes, turnips, greens, radishes, beans, corn and some new herbs! We also have taken a stab at creating better signage and more information to help you in your harvesting endeavors!
With the fall season comes back to school events, football of course and lots of good veggies that YOU should come harvest. Come and try out our Black Beauty, Hansel & Grettle and Fairytale egg plants that make for great recipes to give your meals a little variety. Also, some of our Sweet Baby watermelons are ready for you to take them home. Make sure that you keep an eye out for a future email concerning our next volunteer day where we will be harvesting sweet potatoes which was similar to diggin' for gold last year. Not to mention, we will be serving drinks and giving out recipe books with our favorite recipes using vegetables straight from The Oasis garden. Stay tuned!
Please also check out our Tigurs facebook page where there are before and after pictures of our summer garden. Thanks again for all of your support and feel free to leave any comments or suggestions on either site. We love to hear them!

Hi there! My husband and I are UofM (actually MSU) alumni undergrad-anthropology, grad: planning (him) and law (me), and we have a daughter who is a senior there now, so I hope we can be considered part of the community! Community and urban gardening has always been a strong interest of mine. I now garden in a standard suburban yard in G'town, with Backyard Wildlife Habitat certification and 5 laying hens that give me 30 eggs a week in the summer, along with my raised bed vegetable garden.
ReplyDeleteI was on campus yesterday and saw your beautiful garden!! I loved walking amongst the beds and looking at the plants. What a great project.
