We are so fortunate to have Kirsten Corda, Ph.D. as our County Extension Agent with Texas A & M AgriLife available to assist us. Kristen and Becky presented a nutritional program for the gardeners here at Mathis Park. Becky; (a 9 year old Girl Scout) is training to do presentations on her own as part of her scouting projects! Both the ladies did a wonderful job and we thank them for spending their Saturday with us. Please find the recipe they presented under our recipe tab above.
Remember Rockport is under water restrictions, so that include the garden. However please have faith in our watering system! If you have not mulched your beds, they will look dry for the first few inches down. Mulching helps save water, is a weed deterrent AND will decay & feed your plants. A Win Win Win, so remember to mulch and maintain your mulch layer. The only time you do not mulch is when you plant seeds; wait till the plants are up and then mulch.
Congratulations to everyone with squash; they are being harvested on a nearly daily basis. Remember if you cannot harvest for any reason short term or long term we will do it for you and take them to Good Samaritans as a donation. Just let us know!
