From the Registrar August 10, 2022

Hello Gardeners, 

Eagle Heights tree island: A volunteer crew cleaned up the Tree Island at the end of the 600s row. If you’re not familiar with it, this is a spot that we share with other garden groups and there are some nice benches in the shade. If you’re looking for a place to rest or have lunch, this space is now very welcoming thanks to the group that did a workday there! Please note that the other tree island, labeled “North Tree Island” on the map, and at the end of the 700s, belongs to the Preserve, and is not open to gardeners: https://eagleheightsgardens.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/EHG-UHG-Plots-2021.pdf 


No food waste in FHKing compost or weed piles: I have been asked to inform all gardeners that no food waste can be accepted in the gardens. The FHKing gardens by Eagle Heights are run by a group of UW students, and they maintain their compost pile according to strict guidelines. The weed piles at both Eagle Heights and University Houses are only intended for weeds and other garden waste.  


Workshop ideas: If you have a skill or interest that you think would make a good garden workshop, please let me know. The committee will review all suggestions, and we hope to have some interesting classes and opportunities for gardeners to share their knowledge and ideas.  

 
Thanks, and happy gardening,  

Lily
