We went to water our garden today and found that the water supply at the garden is working again, so no more lugging the water from our building. The sprouts are doing really well, including the first multiplier onion sightings, and we thinned out the radishes. We saw a duck next to the community garden, splashing in the puddles nearby.


Spring Onions

Our first sprouts!
