thank you's

We have collected a number of black pots from the Trader Joe's in Eagle Rock. We are using them as small buckets and planters. It's wonderful to know that our local businesses are so generous.

OSH in Pasadena has also donated a number of black flats which we will soon be using to start seeds for the Pizza Garden, Butterfly + Bird Garden, and Herb Garden.

Without these donations it would be difficult to accommodate all of the classes and children interested in participating in the garden.

common grounds + master gardeners

I went through Master Gardener training in 1998 and was a volunteer for a number of years. Recently I reconnected with the group when I took on the oversight of the Annandale Garden. Many thanks to Yvonne Savio for welcoming me back and for helping us with seeds. Their site is listed in the sidebar and provides tons of useful information about community gardens, gardening tips, children's gardens and the Master Gardener program.

thanks burkard

Burkard in Pasadena is where I picked up our first round of plants. They were kind enough to give me a discount to help get us started.
