We have decided that we are going to start the West County Community 

Seed Bank Garden.

The location is St Stephen's Episcopal Church at 500 Robinson Ave. 

in Sebastopol.  We will start small and only do as much as we have 

time and energy for.  We have a donation of irrigation equipment, the 

field has been mowed and is being plowed tomorrow.  The only thing we 

have to figure out is the gophers!

We invite you to join us next Sunday , May 16th as we begin the 

garden as a part of the 350 Garden Challenge.  We will have a work 

party from 10 to 3 and see if we can get a bunch of beds prepped for 

planting in the next couple of weeks.  Bring tools- shovels, forks 

and rakes,and  wheel barrows (if it is not too hard) as we have 10 

yards of compost donated.  Bring a lunch or something to share.

If you have any favorite plants you think we should consider for our 

initial planting to grow to seed please let me know and we will begin 

to compile a list to consider.

If you would like to be part of the planning and design, we are 

trying to have a meeting sometime this week or before the work party 

on Sunday- let  me know if you are interested.
