Pitchforks (and hydrant wrenches) aloft!

Flower Power! We are neighbors who are interested in bringing some botanical beauty to the bike-lane
tree pits so we have persuaded the city to allow us to garden there unimpeded. Anyone is welcome to
join at any level of involvement. There are no dues and no formal meetings; Just a desire to keep
Chelsea tree-lined and flower-filled. Join us!

  2. I am in search of buying some sod for my wives garden. If you know where I can get the best of the best, let me know.

    1. Sorry I don't know. We occasionally get offered sod and then I post a notice but frankly, our gardens are so small, we don't have much use for it. Good luck
