Cultivating Good Order: Us and Them
Posted: Thu May 24, 2007 2:50 pm
Ploverites,
While watering last evening, Mike was confronted by Teresa.
After creeping by once with her dog, she rushed into the garden on a second pass to ensure that Mike wasn't "tearing out her plants, like you did before". Mike offered to water her plants..... she was not interested.
At this point, it is unapparent whether this women is mistaking the work of the ground hog for LEAF's doing, or is just plane crazy.
Regarless, I suggest that we lend a helping hand despite her hostility. When I water, I will also water Teresa's 2x4 and the plot to the back right of the garden, which she claimed sometime within the last 2 weeks.
Gail Higgins did confirm this AM that Teresa's writing about the "city saying she can have" the plot are unfounded. Gail has made it clear to Teresa that the city does not, and is not interested in acting as a regulatory body.
Gardening at Plover Patch is laizee-fair.
Both Lynn and I have made contact with one of the established farmers at the garden, Pete. Pete is in contact with the rest of the established gardeners. It was Pete who responded to Lynn on behalf of Teresa concerning a note Lynne left to for her, requesting her to call.
It will be in the best interest of all parties involved if we can convene a meeting between our group and the established gardeners. Pete is enthusiatic, glad to see that the rest of the land is being worked.
Let's shoot for tenative date of the evening of June 11 or 12, after 6:00 pm. Post and let me know which date is best.
