Weeding the willow at M.O.P!

At our most recent Means of Production Saturday Work party, dedicated and hard working volunteers worked to keep ever-growing weeds at bay. 

Countless wheelbarrows of invasive weeds were removed, making space for the new growth of bamboo, empress, willow and much more.

We enjoyed a mid-afternoon break to pick raspberries, boysenberries and enjoy the cool shade of the wedding arch.  Our hard work over this year has transformed the garden into a marvelous and inviting space full of character and love. 

The Living Lab Flax is coming up beautifully!
