On Sunday some BCG members got together to prep for spring by painting vegetable signs for the gardens. It was a great winter opportunity to catch up with everyone, drink tea, and paint together– turns out everyone is not only a great gardener but a talented artist as well! Check out just a few of the signs we finished up. Painted by Holly, Wendy, John, and myself. We still have more to paint so get in touch if you’d like to come to the next gathering!

She has worked on farms since she was seventeen and has a background in no-till, no-spray, small-scale farming. She has had the privilege of growing in Maine, Massachusetts, and Vermont. Now she gets her farm-fix working with Biddeford Community Garden.

Her favorite flower is an orange cosmos and her favorite vegetable is too hard to choose.
