Green Thumbs in Action
Posted by Stephanie SatonickSecond grade had a great time with Gardener Amie before the earliest frost hit. First, they learned about square-foot gardening and took some time to design their own gardens. Their gardens included carrots, lettuce, beans, tomatoes, eggplant, peppers, and more! Next, it was time to head out to Unquowa’s garden! They learned that each bed was covered with a white “blanket” that helped protect the vegetables from frost. They learned that it was crucial for the plants to stay protected in order to thrive in cold weather conditions. They even got to harvest some of the vegetables that were ready. After we made a basket of fresh vegetables and herbs, we hand-delivered them to the chefs to prepare for lunch!
