Demo Garden Wrap Up

We cut down the plants and stored the stakes on November 9, 2013.  We had lots of help so it took less than 90 minutes to get it done.  
Thanks to everyone that helped!

Mark, Megan, Cheri, Sandy and Karen dug the tubers on November 20, 2013.  Because we have lost so many tubers the last two years Spence came to the rescue.  We simply dug and washed the clumps of tubers and Megan delivered them to Spence.  He did the rest by packing them in bags and storing them in his root cellar.  
We will divide the tubers next spring in time for our tuber sale.  It is always good to mix things up and try new things.  We have our fingers crossed for a good outcome.

Happy Holidays Everyone! 
Can't wait to see you next Spring!
