Well it finally happened!!  After rolling my mushroom logs into the pooling water below my gutter for a bath and then back to their home under the pecan tree behind my house, they fruited!!

Last week, Darcey and I worked out at Leesville, Elementary in Raleigh to help plant a school garden.  I have to admit that I was nervous about working with several hundred kids in 45 minute blocks over 2 days, but things ran incredibly smoothly. In two days we planted a pizza garden, a 3 sisters garden, a 'kitchen sink' garden, a giant pumpkin garden,a bean garden (with locally grown beans starts from the kindergarten class),  herbs, beneficial perennials, and blueberries.
