Well rain was scheduled for our cold crop workday, but it was important to get the beds down and so we went on with the show. Students showed up and worked tirelessly moving compost and amending the beds so that seeds could be sown when the soil is dry enough. They were such troopers!

Our garden club t-shirts arrived just before Earth Day and students were pretty proud sporting their new colors!

This week Mrs Scheuerman explained the Tower Garden to the students. She showed us the pump, we tested the pH, filled up the garden and put our transplants into six holes (we will not be using the whole thing as we only want to rely on natural light and will not be purchasing the fluorescent lights that come with the tower). Students also took seeds home to transplant into the garden this Spring!

Our Spring workday for cold crops is April 25th. All students, staff and families are welcome to attend but please respond via email with how many in your party will be attending. We will also have a little garden tour during Carnival and we will be transplanting warm crops on the 23rd May.
