• The work day scheduled for 15 April is CANCELLED due to the weather forecast.
• From Josh Donaldson – At this point the forecast is for thunderstorms starting early tomorrow morning and most of the morning so we might as well cancel it already.  We’ll take the rain!If the storms happen to clear in the afternoon I’ll probably go out to work, we’ll see.  Anyone with questions about what they can work on I can meet there some other time next week just get in touch.  Otherwise, as usual, everyone is welcome to work at their convenience (anytime) or come to the next work party!

  Serviceberry, Redbud, and Ragwort are all in bloom at the garden, other plants are just beginning to pop through the surface.

  Thanks for your interest and contributions!
