Based on the early responses, Wednesday at 11:00 seems like the best time. Will see our intrepid team then!

Subject: Fall Projects at the Habitat

Hello, all,

Andrew Clovis and I checked the habitat today--and saw a monarch and honeybees on the late asters! We also took note of things that need to be done, and the weather this week looks good, at least through Thursday.
Who would be available Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday sometime after 11:00 AM? (I generally do not drag my old bones out until the temperature is well into the fifties.)

Tasks that need doing:

  *   Peg down the drip tape and rake mulch to cover
  *   Check depth of new plantings (some are heaved up into the mulch rather than the soil)
  *    Spread cardboard at the base of the slope and rake extra mulch
  *   Weed (Bermuda grass is spreading, as is its wont)

Tools needed

  *   rakes
  *   trowels
  *   cardboard
  *   buckets

The site is looking good. Looking forward to seeing a few of you one of those days. Please send your availability, and thank you for your support of this project.

Rebecca
