SPRING SEASON IN THE GARDEN 2013

 
 
In April we were excited to start a new garden season. In the art room we used our creativity and ceramic skills to make guardian owls to keep predators away!
 
 





It took a lot of third grade teamwork to clean up the old autumn leaves before the new planting. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
First graders help with the spring planting of lettuce for our salad bar. Mr. Williams will be happy for a new supply.

Brrrrr! It was cold, but we managed to get a little more raking, digging and fertilizing done.

Our teacher finally put down the camera for one minute... Smile!

Lots of teamwork by garden groups!

Rocks to cover an unsightly drain... soon to be the home of our beautiful bird feeder from a special elf!

There's lots of raking to do and we had fun doing it!


We all worked together and a lot got done!
