[Garden] need gardening schedule urgent

[mari ortiz]

Hi gardeners,
I am wondering when the gardening times are, I have just become free and can devote time to gardening, can someone please let me know the usual days and times you meet so that I can drop in and help out.  I can not find the times in the old e-mails, I must have deleted them. Bye

I totally agree that it is pesto season and that we should harvest
liberally. 

Rather than taking entire plants I have been picking sprigs
(especially springs with flowers). The basil seems to be regrowing.
Maybe this is a bad idea? As with the chard, my hope was that we could
get multiple harvests per plant.
