There is a ton of work to do-of all types; much of it sequential with a bunch in major weeding and soil prep and then a lot of planting. All of the plants are here, stored in the Bees. We would like to finish the major work by July 1st. You can look at the long bed behind the Bees (bed # 55) for an idea of where we’re going - it’s about 90% complete! See more details •	7
