Garry Oak Nursery work party summary - June 2, 2018

At this work party we had 8 volunteers contribute a total of 21.5 hours of work.

We were very excited to see that acorns planted on the May 5th work party were already spouting!

What we accomplished:

• we weeded between 500 and 600 of the 1-gallon pots and moved them from the landscaping cloth up onto pallets
• we added 6 more pallets onto the landscaping cloth to support pots (this allows for air pruning of the seedling roots)
• we watered the newly sprouted seedlings and the acorns by hand to encourage their growth
