Lincoln Park Cleanup

slsmith819 — Mon, 07 Apr 2008 13:42:22 -0600

You know it's spring when the Tremont Gardeners schedule the Lincoln Park cleanup!

We will meet at the gazebo at 9 a.m. on Saturday, April 12, to rake leaves, prune shrubs and dead grasses, pick up trash from the beds, etc. We probably will be there a couple of hours, so stop by and help or stop by and say hello.

If you're planning to help, please bring any garden tools you have, like pruners, rakes and brooms. We'll have heavy-duty garbage bags.

Tremont gardeners welcome anyone willing to work on one project or many projects, and you can be a new gardener or an expert gardener. We just like to dig in the dirt. And if you help us, you get a free t-shirt. Woo hoo!

And don't forget our spring flower sale is scheduled for Saturday, May 17, starting at 9 a.m. at the corner of Kenilworth and W. 14th in Lincoln Park. As ever, we will have the best prices in town for the best annuals and perennials available. In addition to flats of flowers, we will offer many quart-size pots of annuals and herbs, several types of perennials and hanging ferns.

March Gardeners meeting

slsmith819 — Mon, 17 Mar 2008 07:43:53 -0600

The March Tremont Gardeners meeting will be held on Tuesday, March 18 at 7 p.m. at Visible Voice Books on Kenilworth Ave.

We are starting to plan for our annual flower sale in May and for our spring cleanups and planting projects, so if you're interested in gardening and neighborhood beautification, please stop by!

Roundabout

slsmith819 — Tue, 15 May 2007 12:42:38 -0600

Thanks to everyone who risked life and limb to plant perennials in the Quigley Road Roundabout. A group of about 10 gardeners and neighbors started at 10 a.m. on Sunday, May 12 and had the thing knocked out before noon.

This is a major gateway into Tremont and the first of seven "gateway gardens" planned for the neighborhood with completion dates scheduled sometime during the next 2 years.

Saturday, May 19, more neighbors and gardeners will purchase flowers at the Tremont Flower Sale to finish off the Roundabout plantings with some bright color. The sale starts at 9 a.m. in Lincoln Park at the corner of Kenilworth Ave. and W. 14th Street. Flats are $10 (one of the best prices in town) and we will have some rose bushes and hydrangeas, as well as some 4-inch pots of annuals.

So, if you're driving around the Roundabout on the morning of May 19 and see people working in the garden, slow (the "f") down, save a gardener's life and enjoy the flowers and public art.

May Events

slsmith819 — Wed, 02 May 2007 09:33:29 -0600

May is a busy month for Tremont gardeners and anyone interested in helping out.

Saturday, May 19, is our annual spring flower sale. We will have 600 flats of various types of flowers for sale in Lincoln Park starting at 9 a.m. We also will have a limited number of quart pots of geraniums, impatiens, vines, spikes and asparagus ferns, as well as a few hanging baskets of Boston ferns. Our prices continue to be well-below those of Gales, Petittis and Home Depot, although we were forced to raise them due to increased greenhouse growing costs that were passed on to us.

The weekend of May 12-13, Tremont Gardeners and members of the Holmden Buhrer Rowley/Metor Castle Clark block clubs are meeting at the Quigley Road Roundabout at 10 a.m. to plant perennials. The following weekend, on May 19, the Roundabout group plans to purchase plants at the spring flower sale to finish beautifying the beds. Any and all help is appreciated! Bring gloves, rakes and shovels.

The May gardeners meeting is scheduled for May 15 at 7 p.m. at Visible Voice Books on Kenilworth. Thanks to Phoebe and everyone at Visible Voice for use of their great meeting space!

slsmith819 — Mon, 08 Jan 2007 07:50:19 -0700

The January Tremont Gardeners Planning Meeting will be held on Saturday, Jan. 13 at the Tremont West Offices on Professor. The meeting will start at 9:30 a.m. and is expected to take several hours (we're ordering pizza from Edison's for lunch). Anyone interested in participating in the gardeners or in learning more about projects scheduled for 2007 is welcome to attend.

Topics will include choosing Tremont gateways to plant in 2007; timing of spring cleanup of Lincoln Park flower beds; scheduling of spring flower sale; discussion of a partnership between ParkWorks and Tremont Gardeners for a couple of gateways, specifically the Scranton/Train-Fairfield intersection and the Wade Avenue corridor as cars come off I-90 and head toward Scranton Rd.; possible participation or support by the Tremont Gardeners of neighborhood community (vegetable) gardens; timing for planting the Quigley Rd. roundabout; Court Community Service cleanups of the Tremont neighborhood; and whatever else people want to talk about.

If you're interested in sharing your ideas or participating in any of these projects - either on a formal or casual basis (ie., skipping meetings but showing up on cleanup day, etc.) - please try to attend the meeting or post your ideas to this forum.

Thanks!
Sandy

January Planning Meeting

slsmith819 — Thu, 30 Nov 2006 11:44:02 -0700

The Tremont Gardeners will hold a planning meeting for 2007 projects one Saturday in January.

Discussion will include:

The ongoing focus and structure of the group
Upcoming scheduled projects (Gateways into the neighborhood on W. 14 and off I-490 near Valley View and on Abby Rd.; Planting of the Quigley Rd. roundabout)
Potential future projects. Telephone pole banners designating South Tremont and Tremont? Small directional signs? New gardening projects? Plant sales? Public art? A community vegetable garden? Selling Tremont Gardeners swag, like t-shirts and hats?

Send me an email:

If you have ideas and want to attend the meeting. When a date is chosen, I'll let you know.
If you have ideas for Tremont Gardener projects but don't want to be part of the gardeners.
If you don't like attending meetings but wouldn't mind getting your hands dirty on a community project or two when they come up.

I plan on using this forum to let anyone not on our email list know what projects are coming up and when, so that anyone wishing to can come out and help, stop by and admire, or show up and criticize...whatever suits his or her fancy.
