The Wahkiakum County Eagle - Established as The Skamokawa Eagle in 1891

The Wahkiakum Community Garden is revving up for a new Garden Season and interested gardeners are asked to submit plot requests.

Spokespersons Joyce Orr and Winnie Lowsma say, "To paraphrase an old Burma Shave sign:

"Spring has sprung,

"The weeds are riz

"Where last year's garden iz."

The gardening catalogs have been received for rainy day reading and it's time for the Wahkiakum Community gardeners to plan for the new gardening season.

There are a few vacant plots available for anyone who wants to do their own veggie gardening.

Anyone who does want a garden plot needs to let either Joyce (360) 430-3968 or Winnie (360)849-4108 know. Those who want the garden plots they used last season need to request those plots as soon as possible. The use of each plot is free for the season, but participants must be involved in getting the plot prepared for use.

There is a garden work party this Saturday starting about 10 a.m. Interested persons are invited to help prepare the garden for this coming garden season. Planters can get peas, onions, and other early crops started now.
