Garden Club is work and fun!

This week in the gardens...

Monday was so much fun with a little distraction named Camo the baby goat. He got all of the love and attention. 

He was so soft and sweet. No one could keep their hands off of him. 

But we did get some work done...

We weeded.

In the butterfly garden we weren't sure what this plant was...weed or not?

And we planted tomatoes. 

On Thursday we weeded a bit more.  

And pulled out that unknown plant...

Oops! It was actually Milkweed, something the butterfly garden absolutely needed! Thanks to a wise student for knowing his stuff!

We found a cool critter...any guesses as to what this is?

The kids guessed right...it's a skink!

We planted seeds for zinnias and squashes.  We top dressed the herb garden and butterfly garden with compost. And we watered the gardens since it hasn't rained much in a couple of weeks. 

The tulips have faded so we filled in the spaces with zinnia seeds. Hopefully we will have blooms throughout the summer. 

Looking forward to what next month brings in the gardens.
