Final Harvest

Today's harvest by 4th graders working with Mrs. W. and Ms. R. included:
  • 4 pounds of carrots
  • 1 1/2 pounds of cabbage
  • 1/2 pound of misc. (radish, beet, swiss chard)
Students inspected the frost damage and helped to take out any remaining plants that are ready for the compost pile. All that's left to do is pull out the broccoli that went to seed and take down the tomato ladders.

The flowers are still growing well. We've had a lot of rain lately and no more frost so they have really filled in. Students like to go into the garden during their recess and look at all of the colors.
