Children welcome!

ARAS Community Growing Patch
22177 Wye Road
(South-east corner of RR222 & Wye Road)

We will be using a metal water trough to build a bed that will keep your tomatoes happy while you are away! Tomatoes need regular watering and don’t respond well to periods of dry or soggy soil. Water stress can lead to problems like tasteless fruit, blossom end rot, and cracking and even facilitate the spread of disease. A wicking bed can be the answer!
