In reply to: Jennifer Lumpkin posted an update Hey @rawillou -- The Green Scheme sounds like a good match for some of the volunteer activities you mentioned. Volunteering will take place on Saturday, March 4th and March 11th (11am - 1pm). I will also have two growing spaces where you can I can grow together in Montgomery County (closer to you). The Arc Farm is always buzzing with activity and they have a CSA (http://www.thearcdc.org/thearcfarm). @dpascal who is also a farmer at The Arc Farm, is also on My Grow Connect! I hope this helps. We can link up next Sunday if you\'re free to start your balcony garden :) View

In reply to: Gwen Stembridge posted an update I\'m thinking of planting some winter vegetables/foods and I live in Cleveland, OH. Any recommendations on what might work? I\'m thinking potatoes, garlic, carrots or something but I\'m not sure where to start. Any advice? View

Hi Gwen — carrots, peas and garlic would be good in the ground for cleveland. spuds and roots like potatoes, ginger and turmeric inside are good for indoor growing and starting. If you are looking for flowers planting bulbs would have been good for October/November — sorry that I’m a bit late but I’m sure we’ve had this convo in person since…[Read more]

Peace Everyone! Apologies for being MIA these past 30 days — running the Port Towns Farmers Mercado, taking farmer training and life in general have been hectic. I appreciate everyone’s commitment to connecting on the platform. You are appreciated and your growing with MGC is what keeps this site growing. Thank you!
