The Start of our Garden

We finally were approved to buy our plants!! We are expecting a rain this evening, so I took the students to visit our garden, clean out old plants and weeds, and to plant our plants. We worked hard to remove the roots and weeds that had been growing all summer. They were able to have hands on interaction with our vocabulary word SOIL! They did such a great job!




The students helped dig the holes for our plants and were fascinated by all the roots they saw! Here is a picture of our planted garden!


The first two are cabbage, the second two are broccoli (we think!), then we have garlic and cauliflower, and finally onions and peas. We planted peas seeds, not plants, so you can't see them yet! We can't wait for our plants to produce food for delicious stew we want to make later in he year!! Stay tuned to check our garden's progress!!
