Adelphi Acre Community Garden’s Free+All Ages Activities

Getting together the art for actual fliers for the couple of Saturday activities the Adelphi Acre Community Garden puts together... It’s interesting, and sometimes the crafty Saturdays won’t be strictly clothing related. (like diy ollas and other gardeny type things - but the box of tools and basic mending materials will always be there and I’m happy to help any way I can)

1st Saturdays - Make&Mend 10am-2pm (basic how to mend clothing classes, from how to put a button back on and what a darning egg is for to how to fancy patch your favorite jeans so they last a bit longer)

2nd Saturdays - Open to All Volunteer Day 9am-Noonish (Spend the morning in the garden, learn which plants are “weeds” (where they shouldn’t be), pull a few, have some coffee, various tasks come up as big projects where extra hands are super... handy.)

Last Saturdays - Garden Tour Q&A 9am-Noonish (Have a garden question? Luckily! All gardeners are filled with opinions. Want to just come for a walk and chat with people about plants? Like coffee + being outside + “being nosey” about how people grow different things different ways? =D - I’ll have printouts on the upcoming month of garden stuff to do, what to plant when, and general tips for managing veggies in Austin weather. It’s good to remember that the radiant city heat means we’re nearly zone 9... we just can’t grow avocados easily)

The Free Little Seed Library will be present for perusal at all events (unless I’m ill or something ridiculous happens and I can’t get the box to someone willing to keep track of it. The “membership” form is to keep us safe from the “big hort” army of lawyers and to help you keep track of what varieties you’ve already tried, I don’t look through them beyond to see who’d like to come to a seed saving class and you can put any name you want.)
