Just in case you didn’t catch the last blog about garden workdays, they are beginning next week!!!

Excited? So are we. To show you just how excited we are, we are going to be kicking the season off with a fun and eventful workday that will help us get the ball rolling. On Wednesday 3/24, we will be constructing cold frames to keep our young and tender plants comfy as we harden them off before freeing them out into the cruel and cold world outside of our basement. Come spend some time with us and lend a hand. We’ll meet at the store at 2pm (every Wednesday), and will wrap up our projects by 5pm at the latest.

Cold frames are an excellent way to extend the growing season (both forward and backward), and are very popular and easy to use. Many of the cold frames that we build will make their way into our gardens, and most of the rest will be available for purchase at the Store on Northampton street. These cold frames will be of similar size, shape, and made from sturdy wood and windows–all for $25. Come take a look!

We are also taking orders for custom cold frames. Prices will vary depending on dimension and materials needed, but if you have something in mind that isn’t what you see at the store, ask us.

We hope to see you on Wednesday!!!
