From the Registrar: April 21, 2026

Hello Gardeners,


Plant sale this Sunday! The cool weather plant sale with Blue Moon Community Farm will be this Sunday, April 26th at Eagle Heights Gardens by the entrance from 10 am to 12 pm. This sale is for all gardeners at EH and UH gardens.


Here is their plant list: https://www.bluemooncommunityfarm.com/media/site/364a87f158-1773592094/blue-moon-seedlist-v2.pdf
  • Plants are $4.00 per unit (pot or 4-pack)
  • Volume discount (mix and match) 6 for $22.00, 12 for $42.00, flat of 18 for $60.00
  • They accept Cash, Checks, Credit Cards, and Venmo
Row cover will be available during the plant sale. The pieces are approximately 7 ft x 20 ft and they are $5 each, cash only.


Water: The water was turned on today at Eagle Heights Gardens. The UW plumbers have run into a problem with turning on the water at University Houses Gardens but are trying to resolve it as quickly as possible. Our water systems are heavily used and exposed to the elements, so leaks are fairly common. Repairs are made as quickly as possible to try to limit outages. Please report any water leaks or issues with our online maintenance reporting form (see below).

*The water in the Gardens is safe for watering plants but is not considered potable.*


Maintenance reporting form: Use this form throughout the season to report maintenance issues. Using this form (rather than emailing the registrar) sends the information directly to all employees promptly. The link to this form is also on our website, and I will include it with email updates: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScyjHBH_xBH229AVwmqTE-2L3znGrLwn3TNJfw2ri9T01MMfA/viewform

Use the maintenance reporting form for things like:
  • Water issues: Leaks, dripping faucets, non-functioning water, etc.
  • Reporting trees that need removal
  • Trees fallen on plots
  • Broken things in common areas
*Please note that this form is only for maintenance requests.*


Flooding in UH weed pile area: Campus Facilities and Landscape Architecture are aware of the flooding in the weed/wood chip piles at UH gardens. This is storm water runoff, and we hope to have this addressed soon to make the area more accessible for gardeners and prevent standing water.


Thanks, and happy gardening,

Lily
