Announcing The Fruits Of Our Neighbors Garden

I'm very happy to announce the creation of the Fruits of our Neighbors market garden. This garden will be created on an empty lot in Northeast Portland.

I'll be working with Dan Bravin of City Garden Farms and Portland Organiponico Project to realize this dream. Dan's been a fierce proponent of urban farming in Portland and I'm very excited to be working with and learning from him.

So far, I've cleared over a ton of debris and garbage from the lot (much of which was recycled), as well as chopped down and dug up dozens of blackberry bushes. I'll be cutting down a sumac weed-tree this coming weekend and then we'll start bringing in soil amendments in preparation for the upcoming growing season.
