fall community workday a success
We had a productive community workday this morning with surprisingly cooperative weather.
Lots was done. Flower beds around transformers, Governor’s House, and Common House are clean of weeds! Daffodils are planted all along stone wall coming into the neighborhood, at Common House entrance, and in lots of surprise locations. Granite has all been moved and stacked and area cleaned up. Firewood near barn has been moved. Mushroom area is prepped. Trees near field edges were cut down. June-planted trees have no more weeds at their feet.
After a productive morning, we all were honored by a great lunch (chicken soup, salad with mozzarella, bread) in the Common House.
And the sun was out too! Earlier in the week, invasive bittersweet was torn down, and sunflowers and other annuals were pulled.
Thank you to the Orbetons for the lovely bridge contributed a few weeks earlier by the pond, and thanks to Darkstone and Dori for the recently installed stone and wood bench also near the pond!
Still to be done by others who weren’t able to be here today: work on sunken garden, trim maple tree in front of Common House, firewood brought up from horse pasture.
Let it snow!………Not!
