Revving our green thumbs...


Yeah for school being back in session! It was a lovely surprise for many to come check out the garden and see all of these big, gorgeous pumpkins, apples, zucchinis as big as tree trunks, monster Kale, and tomatoes plants that would not stop. Oh and bees.. and we like bees, they make our plants happy! We are really excited for our gardening program this year...

We are asking every class to have at least one Garden Liaisons  (Parent) to help weave garden-related activities and lessons into their classroom core curriculum. In plain words, get in the garden with the kids, observe, write, draw, graph, plant, harvest... Without you amazing parents, we don't have a program!

We ask that children only pick when they are with their teachers. We will be officially kicking off the program once we get all of our Garden Liaisons for each class. We can't wait to reconnect and meet new faces..look for a garden work day to kick it all off!
