I have made notes to show which crops are where

This is the old bed by the entrance to school with the rain barrel

This is where we planted the raised beds- the pollinator, salsa and veggie bed

As produce becomes available, I will try and post ahead of time. So far we have had some radishes, kale, chard, basil and cilantro ready. I have had to freeze some cilantro so we can have it for our salsa recipe later on in the year. If you are interested in produce, let me know. This week the rest of the broccoli will be ready, more radishes, borage and chard.

Beets, peas and onions will soon be ready. Haven and Riley have already harvested some radishes and onions and basil.

This week Scott Keopke from New Pioneer Food Co-op (a kind sponsor of our school garden) came to give us a presentation called "From Tomato to Potato". Students had to say whether the vegetable or fruit grew underground or above ground. We then went out to check on the progress of our garden.

We also finished installing our Little Free Library! Garden club students helped to paint the post and the car (minus the windows). We will have a small ribbon-cutting ceremony tomorrow, our last garden club class of the school year.
