It was a busy week in the world of the library garden! We had our first official community work day, yielding many wheelbarrows full of old weeds with seed heads and plants we don't intend to compost (such as spent tomato vines). We also got a good start on weeding (grass is so tenacious!), and admired the new jewel-like growth emerging everywhere we looked. There's a lot more to do, but we made great progress!
Just in time, too, because the next day, we had a delivery of beautiful compost, generously donated by Better Earth Compost and transported for us by the marvelous folks at the City of Chillicothe Public Works Department. We are thrilled and look forward to seeing our garden grow all the more lush for the addition of this "black gold."

And the sun sets majestically over compost mountain. Goodnight, sweet world.
(And now for some dry weather, so we can get this distributed!)
