Central Florida Fairgrounds
In the Vegetable Garden...............submitted by Alicia Yeatman
November in the garden has been a busy and productive time. We have had pole beans to
gather the entire month. Mustard, turnips, Swiss chard, kale, lettuce and radishes have been
harvested. Fennel was planted
along with additional mustard,
chard, turnips and radishes for a
continual harvest. Super sugar snap
peas will be planted on the fences
when the pole beans are finished.
The cabbage, collards, and broccoli
are growing, although a little
slower than normal.
Just before Thanksgiving we had a
pallet of mulch delivered to spruce
up the walkways and other areas.
(Thank you Ed) We will be busy putting it down in the coming weeks.
The wildflower and native plants areas are being cleaned out and some areas will be
reseeded with wildflowers next month. The fine garden photos were taken by MG Phyllis
Stopford.
There is still time to get needed volunteer hours for the year. Stop by the Fairground garden
and spend some time with us. All Master Gardeners are invited.
