The seeds have been planted and watered well. We were surprised to see on Thursday morning that the Monday broccoli seeds had sprouted already. It's an amazing sight to see. Families donated rotisserie chicken containers to us to use as mini greenhouses. The GHES PTA has provided shelving with plant lights for use in growing seeds. Soon we will have a real greenhouse to use to grow our seedlings. But for now they are starting in the Spanish classroom and are doing well.
We also went out to the compost bin to add more materials.
And then we worked in the second grade gardens to help clean them out in preparation for spring planting.
We found grubs and worms. We talked about how grubs are bad and worms are good.
We have a serious love for worms.
And for snack this time we had simple sweet clementines. Sometimes the sections are so tiny.
Thank you for allowing your children to help make our world a healthier place to live. We have so much to do in our small space at Grange Hall and we need all of the help we can get. Please know we appreciate you getting your children to garden club each time. And to the volunteers...your help is very much appreciated. Thank you for all you do!
