Gardening with Newton Community Farm May 12, 2020

Thank you for purchasing your seedlings from Newton Community Farm. You're one step closer to growing your garden! To prepare for your seedlings, clear some space on a windowsill or other surface that will receive strong, regular sunlight, while you plan where each seedling will be transplanted . Dust the cobwebs off your watering can, because your seedlings will require hydration to stay healthy, and gather your gardening tools. Also, c onsider investing in soil and compost to utilize throughout the growing season.

Picking Up Your Seedlings

If you haven't already, please remember to sign up for a pickup window . Your order will only be ready on the date and time that you register. During your designated time slot, park on Winchester Street, adjacent to the Farm, between the intersection and the farm stand. Pre-packed orders will be available at the curb for you to collect, and they will be arranged alphabetically by the last name on your order. Look for the trays (and soil amendments, if you purchased any) which have labels with your name on them. Please be sure to retrieve all your items. Also, if you can bring your own boxes and leave the plastic trays behind, we would appreciate it. If you have any questions, contact   jay@newtoncommunityfarm.org
