Composter & Fallen Trees

Hello Gardeners,

I just wanted to update you on a few issues in the garden. We have have been trying to get more dry material for the composter for over a week now, and just got confirmation that more dry material will be dropped off today. Hooray! Hopefully we will be able to get the compost that is currently "working" to dry out a little. I apologize that this has taken a bit of time to resolve.

The other issue I wanted to address was the tree(s) that was broken during or around the time of Hurricane Irene that now hangs over some of the plots in the back of the garden. Please use extreme caution when out in that area of the garden. I have shared a few e-mails with the grounds department about my concern for a safe gardening environment. The issue now is that the ground is too saturated with water for them to get the heavy equipment back there that is necessary for the removal of these trees. They have assured me that they will get back there to remove unsafe trees/branches as soon as it is safe for them to operate in that area.

I will update you on the situation as I know more. Please feel free to reach out to me or Abigail if there are any other garden issues that need to be addressed.
