Gardening

It is finally time to start planting outdoors!!! 

Our seedlings are all grown up and ready to plant.

See our previous blog entitled 'Planting!' to see the children planting the seeds which have grown into the above plants (celery, onion,tomato and peppers)! 

Once we finished planting our grown plants we planted a few other vegetable seeds. After discussing with the children what we would like to grow, we planted the following seeds: peas, carrots, cucumber, zucchini, spaghetti squash, romaine, spinach and leaf lettuce.

We will get to watch our vegetables grow from seed to table over the summer. We will be cooking with and using our freshly grown vegetables for several of our snacks and meals throughout the summer. Our goal is to have 10% of our snacks come from our garden!
