This soil needs to be amended in the fall by putting in leaves from yards in the community.

I know there are lots of leaves at the Trabue house that could be picked up and used in these gardens and there are grass clippings at theTrabue house also that could be bagged for composting to go in these gardens to make the soil better to make the vegtables better.

While they are teaching inmates how to grow a garden they could learn how to make compost. There are also a lot of farms around so they could get the manure to go in the compost to go in the garden.

This is a great project, thanks for letting us know about this GREAT IDEA. - Maury Lewis
