Garden Reflections for May 8th, 2008










Group B
“In Garden Group B we planted some asparagus in a big hole. The hole was deep and black. It was our second hole. The first one didn’t work because it was too small.”

“A few weeks ago in garden group B we planted a greens garden with all different kinds of greens in it. This week there were plants sprouted up and we were allowed to eat some. Then some preschoolers [who were visiting the school for a special Teddy Bear Tea in preparation for kindergarten next year] came walking by and they wanted to try some greens! They even asked what we liked best!”

Group C
“Today we took soil tests called the K test, the N test and the P test. We took water with straws and put it in the containers and then we took the little capsules that match the cap and broke them apart and the stuff inside made [the water] change color after ten minutes.”

Group D
“Today in Garden Group D we decided on which plants to grow in our herb garden. One thing we decided on is lemon balm. We had a good time in the garden today.”
