Plans for the Hy-Vee Garden at Stonybrook are turning into reality. Top soil and Oma-Gro were brought in by the truck load to add organic matter to the soil. Four main beds were tilled in preparation for planting. The three largest beds on the west side of the garden were created to grow the bulk of the crops including tomatoes and peppers this year. The smallest bed at the entrance of the garden will be planted with herbs, including basil, sweet mint, cilantro and more. Annual flowers and roses will also be planted to add structure to the garden. Please look for additional posts regarding the future of the garden and how the harvested produce will be used to help serve the community.
