Long Island Gardening Community Resource

We are starting to compile a Gardening Calendar. It will be of use to everyone who has that feeling that they are forgetting to do something to nurture their garden at any time of the year.

We are asking you to send in your list of monthly activities in the garden.

For example, this is October and in the garden i will need to:

- put mulch around everything (straw, maybe wood chips)
- pull out tomato plants when they stop producing
- bring in annuals i want to overwinter inside (or take cuttings from).
- plant garlic (after it gets cold)
- pull out all annuals that are no longer producing
- cut back died out folliage from perrenials
- keep up with watering, especially on hot and windy days
- keep harvesting plants as needed
- harvest herbs and use a save and store technique (such as freezing in ice cubes, or drying them out next to a fan)

So send in your October list, and next month send the November list. We want to have a Calendar everyone can refer to for their Long Island home gardening needs.
