Garden of Grace Update
We've had a terrific year of growing fresh produce for the Chubby's Project during 2022 -- thanks to our combined efforts of planning, planting, watering, weeding and harvesting!
Below is our final summary and above are a few pictures of the various vegetables that sprung from the 3 raised beds this season.
Special thanks to those who were able to stop by and periodically water this garden, especially during the extra DRY weeks during July & August!
HPC Garden of Grace – 2022 Season Outcome
Swiss Chard: 19.0 lbs. (June 15 - Aug 5)
Snap Peas: 9.5 lbs. (June)
Cucumbers: 81.5 lbs. (July 6 - Sept. 4)
Plum Tomatoes: 21.0 lbs. (July 19 - Sept. 4)
Green Beans: 2.5 lbs. (Sept.11- Oct.10)
Total amount of Produce: 133.5 lbs. of fresh produce provided to Chubby’s Project between June – Oct. 2022
These vegetable plants are good candidates for repeating again next year as they all did very well, with the exception of the green beans, which suffered from being seeded during drought weeks of summer. The beans would undoubtedly do much better next year with extra care during the first 2 weeks after seeding.
