Next week, Tuesday, July 23 @ 5 pm
we will meet at Rotary's Pollinator Gardens
to take down the fence-cages around each planting bed and receive a little 'weed-identification' training from Bill. His idea is we will create Rotary Teams of 2 or 3 people, each of which will tackle just one or two specific weeds to distinguish from desirable Native Plants rather than trying to recognize a variety of weeds and tackle them all. Then each Team or individuals could work out their own schedules to go pull the weeds they know whenever it suits them rather than trying to organize group dates to do periodic clean-up of the gardens until the native plants fully mature in another year or two.
Any and All Rotarians are welcome next Tuesday to join us for an hour or so to help take the fences down, get some 'weed-ID training' and see how well the gardens are maturing. Bill says many of the native plants are beginning to bloom!
If you have questions, let's talk at Club meeting on Friday.
