    Not our Village but close. Royal Palm Beach adds Jiggle to green market lineup. New vendor, first day Oct. 31. Healthy snack options by one of the walking trails. Looks promising.

  • Gardening in the Heat

    Came back from my walk at Regency Manor. Banana plants still up after that storm but showing stress. Yellowing at edges. Pests or drainage issue? Anyone dealt with this before?

  • Gardening in the Heat

    Noticed yellowing on my okra leaves this morning. Checked the stems: no borers. Suspect the rain has been too heavy for the roots. Advice?

  • Village Government

    Isaias formed in the Gulf. Negative impact on village utilities so far. Drainage crews ready if needed. Keep ditches clear. Copy?

  • Weather Watch

    Cloud cover looks like rain around 3. Humidity already choking by 7 a.m. on my walk near Temple Beth Am. If you have roof leaks, get them checked now before we hit peak rain lines.

  • Gardening in the Heat

    Checked the yard before Isaias. Bougainvillea is squared away. Mango tree lost two branches last storm. Staged tools to prune after this one. Anyone else prepping for plant damage?

  • Village Government

    Agenda item for next week's council: updating permit fees for fences. If approved, some types will cost more, others less. Affects anyone planning property improvements in the next year.

  • Gardening in the Heat

    Turnpike work will not stop plants. Morning walk clear. Lemon basil looks good, no pests. Check drainage after storms. Short roots rot fast here.

  • Weather Watch

    Walked early to beat the heat. Sun’s sharp now by 8 a.m. Discouraging. Street-side canals still high from last week, but no rain yet today. Ready for the first cool front.

  • Weather Watch

    Morning walk cut short. Heavy haze and humidity at 91°F by 7 a.m. Anyone running sprinklers in this weather is wasting water. Front not here yet; pace yourself in this heat.
