Vent: Worst Tuesday I've had in years at the community garden

Someone dumped a full bag of concrete mix into the compost bin on Monday night. Now the whole pile is ruined and we have to start over from scratch. Has anyone else dealt with vandalism like this at their local garden?

Read a local news article last week about a community garden that had someone dump motor oil in their raised beds. They had to pull out all the soil and replace it. Cost them over 500 dollars and months of volunteer hours. People just don't get how much work goes into keeping these places going. Maybe set up a cheap camera or ask neighbors to keep an eye out after dark.

Was that the one up in Arlington actually? I thought I read something similar but it was paint thinner they dumped, not motor oil. Either way, yeah cameras are a good call... cheap ones from Wyze are like 25 bucks and work fine.
