All the lots have now been seeded — so I guess I can start calling them “gardens” rather than “lots” now. The big garden at Elm and Atlantic has also been “over-seeded” to supplement the plugs and the entire garden has been covered in straw. The winter rye grass seed that was mixed in with the flowers is expected to come up next week and will help protect the gardens this winter.

The Barber Shop is a good way to spot one of the biggest new gardens near the end of Atlantic at the Mahoning terminus.

We have also begun putting in the posts for the dedication signs but my main man Lyle had the nerve to go on vacation this week so will will resume that work when he returns — he has the F-150 and his own post-hole digger.

We also held our first dedication ceremony Monday evening which is reported on in today’s Warren Expressed post.
