4/16/12 Gardening update

Welcome to "Pea Mountain"! Where Ms. Jost's 6th grade class are planting experiment plants.

Onions are sprouting up!

Watering the worm garden.

More sprouts coming up. Spring is, uh, springing?

Today was mostly a weeding day, but weeding is important also. Clearing gardens from from dominant weeds so they don't take over, helps the garden plants survive.

"Sunny daze" A good day to work in the sun!

We are officially a Community Garden! We have fantastic signs!

Plants need plenty of water. Mr. Iverson gives plants a fair amount.

Miguel was waterin' away!

Friday the 13th? Pssh. No big deal.
The great sunny weather was perfect to work in. Not to mention we now have trees to keep growing. More sprouts have been coming up, and more participation with our peers.
