Second Season at PRGC!

PRGC Take Two! The winds have returned so it must be planting season. We are already well into the start of our second growing season at the coop. The garden was dismantled and cleared with the help of a handful of members. The greenhouse and the garden was tilled with compost and manure. Rows lines and irrigation lines have been set back up (around the time of the White fire in Ruidoso Downs). Prior to and during this, several members have been busy starting seeds in the shop. peppers, spinach, tomatoes, cabbage, basil are now growing well and many have been repotted. We have greens and chard and arugula in the ground in the greenhouse being watered by the new sprayers.  Onions and spinach are in the ground outside.

So much more on the way. Got some potatoes in the mail this week and a lot of new seedlings need repotting using the new potting contraptions. 

A few new members have joined the coop and there is talk of a few more new faces coming soon. 

More to come.
