September 7th Garden Day!

We had a beautiful garden day today - perfect weather! We watered, weeded, checked out the compost, and harvested beans and tomatoes! Next time we may even be able to pick the carrots! See you then!

 The sunflowers are getting so large, they are starting to droop.

 This sunflower is just about ready to bloom!

August 22nd Cultivating Kids Garden Day!

Today we were able to water, weed, harvest (a LOT!) and create our own little birdfeeder that the kids were able to take home!

First, we picked lots of beans and tomatoes

 Then, everybody worked on their cheerios-on-a-string! They are perfect for feeding the birds - and so easy!

 Hannah picked all kinds of beans

 Hannah, Tegan, and Elizabeth working on their birdfeeders!

 Rebecca and Tyler watering the marigolds!

 Our zinnias are looking radiant!

 Sarah watered our mammoth sunflowers!

We picked so many tomatoes and beans, they filled the bucket to the brim!

We hope to see everyone again in a few weeks on Saturday, September 7th at 10AM! We'll hopefully be picking the carrots, weeding, and watering, too! See you then!

Garden Day, August 8th!

This morning we had another garden day and though it looked like rain, we stayed dry! Today we picked weeds, harvested purple beans and cherry tomatoes, explored the garden, and painted garden gnomes! We'll see you next time on Thursday, August 22nd!
