Work Day, 2008#8

David, Beth, Anne, and Linda helped on today's work day. We bumped up purple needle grass, CA fuchsia and mustang mint. The oaks are growing, slowly. We've had a period of near-freezing temperatures.
The 2” of rain produced about 60 gallons of rain water -30gal/1”. This is less than average of 50 gallons/1” of rain. Interesting enough we used 18 gallons this work day – most of this was for cleaning.
A big help has been David and Beth coming by and checking on plants and watering. Without an automated irrigation system, maybe this June, this is the support we need.
