When repairs are necessary !

When it's time to replace a pump, Monumet has to move !
It's quite the technical strucure ! And an art form with stairs in one !
4 years ago the pump at Het Gazebo looked a lot different !
Today, Monomet is used to get a great view!
When you visit Diepenheim, take the stairs!

A new season begins at Het Gazebo !

Autumn! What a beautiful way to start September at Het Gazebo !
Warm sunny weeding weather after the night had cooled to 8 C.
The volunteers, changing and adapting techniques when necessary,
made a lot of progress keeping the area weed free and hosta green!

A noticeable change

 There's not only a noticeable change in mid August as the hostas grow from flower to seed and the last few days of this years record breaking heat wave pass but the weeding done by the volunteers at Het Gazebo Monomet in Diepenheim is very obvious!  Thanks to the volunteers for spending time and energy maintaining this green growing  and ever changing Hosta leaf art form!

Very warm! It's a heat wave !

Stay cool ! Drink lots !  Stay in the shade!
It's our National plan of action for days just like these!
 Like hostas, that's what the volunteers are trying to do !
Het Gazebo from every angle!

Luckily there are a few rainy days forecasted!
But does the rain fall here or there?
What ever you do, stay cool !

Just look how far the volunteers have progressed at Het Gazebo!
They have weeded and weeded and weeded and replanted and replanted and replanted and have hostas in stand by ! What a view from Monomet!  A hosta high light in 2020 !

Before, after and a coffee break in between !

A before and after photo showing what can be accomplished during a weeding get together at Het Gazebo! The Netherlands has been enjoying good hosta growing as well as weed growing weather conditions!  Following Covid 19 guide lines such as social distancing and bring your own coffee/tea etc. keeps the volunteer team going!
