[Garden] Planting Party

[s3lyons at scimail.uwaterloo.ca]

We have access to the greenhouse workspace to do the planting.  That  
way we don't have to be quite as concerned of spilling any soil etc.   
The manager really wants to minimize any potential external  
contaminations coming into the greenhouse...hense she is giving us  
pots and trays.  It might be easier to just meet at the WPIRG office  
meet with the new planters and give everyone a rundown on the garden  
and then walk over to the greenhouse to do the work.  The biology  
greenhouse is attached to the biology building...located in South  
Campus...it is the one you see adjacent to Needles Hall and Dana  
Porter Library.

I just received an email and found out that the greenhouse has  
cockroaches.  They will keep them away from our plants but there are  
no guarantees.  Saying this I hope we all recognize the importance of  
not bringing any plants to our homes after wards.
