Not sewing, sOwing! :) Our school is going to attempt to winter sow some seeds. In order to do this, I need translucent or transparent plastic containers. I think that spaghetti sauce plastic jars, milk jugs, etc... will work great. I am also collecting pop bottles, I think they will work for the little kiddos. I am also in need of potting soil. If you have any partial bags or full bags that you don't feel like storing this winter, we could gladly make use of them. Feel free to send in any of these. Thanks much!
Oh, Scott and Clay put a layer of leaves on the garden. It looks like a warm blanket! :) Thanks, GUYS!
More soon!

I went out and planted chives that were donated from the Stadtmueller family. There are two different types and they made the room smell really yummy! Thank you, Stadtmuellers!

Today, I was able to take my mom (who lives in Oklahoma and is a mega gardener) by our garden. We also planted some more bulbs that had been donated after the ground breaking weekend. She said she would come back in the spring and give some more advice, I sure hope so! :)

Striking a pose are Nikala, Nikki, Lara and Chloe...
Polly and Mr. Dave were great helps that morning, too.
Caught Stefanie off guard, I think! :)

Roll, Chloe, roll!
Look at all those muscles working in that wonderful dirt!
Sam and Collin worked really well together. They made our lives easier because they did a lot of hard work!
Treylor and Maddie stopped for a quick picture.
Laurel, Chloe and Cuinn planted many of the bulbs donated by the Wilson family.
There is Sam again helping Nikki haul a heavy roll of sod.
Cuinn carried his own weight in sod, some of the time!
Collin helped out so much!

Scott is busy cutting the sod so that we can begin moving out the grass.
Look at those hard workers! Thanks Mr. Dave, Maddie and Laurel!
Sam and Grandpa Besler both worked very hard this morning.
Part of our hard working crew! Big thanks go out to Stefanie, Janet, Peggy, Alaina and Nicole!!!
The beginning of it all!
Here Sam and Grandpa Besler start rolling the sod. Notice how much bigger Fr. Schmitt let us expand than what was planned (the red spray painted lines).

Today was a very wet and chilly morning. There were many families that joined me in breaking ground in front of St. Dennis. Thanks to Scott who went with me and rented a sod cutter and then used it to cut the sod for us. Lots of heavy rolling and loading of the sod into the trailer. Then, Grandpa Besler and Polly Reott brought out their rototillers and chomped up all the dirt. Julie Rozwadowski and a few others helped to plant all the bulbs in each corner of the garden.
The pictures show all of the hard workers! Thanks everyone!
