Project List and Update for Saturday, June 14th Workday 10am-afternoon
Thanks forever for everyone who's been coming off the asphalt and into the alley these swampy days! We are really working together and slowly but surely getting projects off/into the ground. If you are visiting the blog for the first time and are interested in getting involved, please shoot us a comment or email, or just show up every Saturday in the alley behind Elsewhere Artist Collaborative at 606/608 South Elm Street.
Project List for Saturday:
* Patio footprint and water drainage preparation-- Jay will be leading those who want to help make a work space/patio near the fence by leveling and paving the central block of bricks.
2.We will continue to build, fix, and paint planter boxes from old stuff for later installation on the facade
3.We still gotta transplant tomatoes upside down in 5-gallon hanging buckets and devise a system for hanging them and watering them until the drip irrigation is under way.
4.Brainstorm possible worm compost systems we can build from on site materials, read about worms, and start to make some space for a container.
5. Hauling mulch from our front sidewalk and other areas around Elm Street from tree cuttings in a wheelbarrow.
Materials Wish-list for Saturday, and beyond!:
mattocks/picks, bricks/pavers, perforated drain pipe & mesh sleeve, soil, seedlings/plants, compost, hooks, wheelbarrows, rope/wire, cement screws, varnish, paintbrushes, rags, and any extra tools you have that you want to bring to use as well as any donations you might have. If you have an idea for it, we can probably integrate it.
