hacked!

this just in from my neighbors, who are the original motivators on the empty lot revival!

"we went out this morning before running in from the rain a few minutes ago and we took down 3 to 4 of the big invasive trees, a bunch of little ones. I got more of the nasty spikey plants taken out - and if we have more time a little later (between rain storms) I'll head back out to get the rest of them.  We poisoned a lot of the stumps and we've got some more to do, but for now we should start seeing the maple trees get bigger and we'll only need to deal with the little ones that pop up."


It's the last day of May and everything is just getting wild and green and full of foliage, especially since we had a spell of warm sunny weather until today. Just yesterday the view of the afghan blankets was obscured, now they are in full view again thanks to the weed whacking.

In other news, I accidentally injured one of the tomato plants I got from Kilbourn by swiping the hose on it. Trying to revive it but not sure if it's worth the effort. Need to finish planting all the rest of the seedlings, as they need more space and composty soil.
