Thanks to everybody who came out to the build day on March 11th!

In December, the Sisterhood Gardens Committee underwent a selection process to determine the 2017 cohort of community gardeners. You can view the roster HERE.  Due to high demand, we do have a wait list and we would appreciate your help in building more garden plots.

For your safety, please note that no planting can occur prior to our opening day.

Gardener Orientation 11:00 – 12:30 pm 
I.T. Bookman Center (440 Randolph Street) 

If you are a selected gardener, please join us for a mandatory Community Garden Orientation.  We will introduce you to our community garden rules and practices.  We will assign you a garden plot, introduce you to your neighbors and answer your questions. Please note that we will charge a $30 annual plot fee to help with maintenance costs. You can pay during the orientation.

Garden Build Day 12:30 – 4:00 pm
Sisterhood Gardens (Corner of Brotherhood Way and Arch Street)

We hope you can participate and help build Sisterhood Gardens.  We will build the toolshed and plant lemon trees. These Meyer lemon trees are generously donated by Just One Tree, a project established in San Francisco to promote the concept of greater urban self-reliance. Snacks and beverages will be provided.

If you have questions or concerns, please email sisterhoodgardens@gmail.com.

Warmest Wishes,
The Sisterhood Gardens Committee

The health of a garden is a measured by the quality of your soil. High quality compost is one of the key elements to growing healthy plants. We’ll walk you through how to make your very own compost! Compost improves all soil types and can help you reclaim garden waste into high quality amendment for your plants! In this workshop we will teach you how to make compost in your backyard, provide the plans for a basic compost system you can build, and introduce you to vermiculture (composting with worms). Learn how to make your garden healthier and more sustainable by making this black gold in your own backyard!

Learn about the basics of saving your own vegetable seeds from year to year. Also learn about the science behind the popular technique of companion planting. Companion plants are those that improve the growth of others by attracting beneficial insects, repelling pests, or providing nutrients, shade, or support. Learn which plant companion recommendations are proven and which are merely folklore. Used wisely, companion planting can be an effective part of an Integrated Pest Management (IPM) plan for your home vegetable garden.
