- Correction from Barbara H: I will continue to rescue unwanted, unneeded plants. Just call me @ 206-503-3678 or barbaura-at-gmail.com. So far, 4 hydrangea, 2 butterfly plants, several rootings of torch plants and miscellaneous herbs have found homes in our neighborhood via Nextdoor.com. (Plant Amnesty is a tree pruning organization and doesn't take plants. That reference to them is due my misuse of their name for lack of current information.)
- Dave Bell is preparing a compost order.
