Good morning, in case you were wondering we do plan to have the straw bale garden again this year. We unloaded bales a few days ago and will be working to lay them out in a way that allows for plenty of distancing. We will share more once we start to see some relaxing of the current rules allowing only essential activities. Thanks and stay safe.
