A hot air balloon almost landed in the garden this evening. Some fast work by the pilot took it go ground just outside of the lower garden. People passing by helped the team anchor the basket, and deflate and pack up the balloon.
Plastic Plant Pot Collection
Saturday, June 20th
9:00AM – Noon
Longacre’s Nursery
220 Mechanic Street
Lebanon, NH
Sustainable Hanover, community volunteers and Longacre staff will be ready to accept your various used plastic plant pots, trays, flimsy multi-packs and plant labels on Saturday, June 20th and the third Saturday of July, August (and maybe September).
No need to wash the pots, just tap free of dirt, remove staples and they will be ready for us to stack.
Help us keep this usable plastic out of the waste stream and landfills.
If you would like to offer an hour or two to this volunteer task, we would welcome your help. Anyone needing pots may also join us during the morning, good company and free pots are your reward!

Fences are Up
Thanks very much to all the gardeners who showed up today for our garden work day. We were able to get our fence posts in and our fencing up in about an hour. We can now proceed to planting without fearing incursions by our many local deer.
Thanks to Hill Carter for the photos.
