I have always wondered about companion planting up here in the north. Are the books or references put out in the world conducive to our area? Are there any companion planting suggestions that did NOT work for you? This snapshot came across my feed and caught my attention. We’d love to hear from you as we close out this growing season and plan for the next!

We’ve had an overwhelming summer with our garden move this spring but we are still here and working on a plan forward! Keep watching our page for updates and a work bee!

This week’s small project is building a raised platform for our water tank since we do not have a pump for watering and rely on gravity!
We are looking for a donation of 2 sheets of 1/2inch treated plywood! Message us if you would like to make this purchase for the FSJ garden!

We are looking for a beefy 2500+ truck to tow a trailer with tractor from Clairmont area to town on Saturday morning! We need to finish removing fence post and hops towers at our old site, as well as skim a grass layer off the new site.

Thank you to Peace Country Rentals for donating us a trailer for the day. We were able to move our fencing and picnic table with your help!

We are looking forward to our workbee on Saturday but we are still hoping for a skid steer (or two) to help us out!
Wondering if we can use you? Our goal is to finish moving things from the old site to the new. We have jobs for everyone!
Here is a glimpse:
Cut zip ties from fence, roll up chain link, box up fence caps, take apart as much fence as possible, dig up raspberries and rhubarb, move watering cans and black rain barrels, move small greenhouse and 3 hops towers.
A skid steer would help us move rocks, and pull posts out of the ground. If you have tools that would make these jobs easier, please bring them!🛠️
