Earth Day! Thank you to all of my helpers that donated, dug holes, and planted over 50 flowers, fruits and vegetables! We already harvested a few strawberries. I have been so grateful to our students willingness to work hard to make this happen. Everyday they ask to help water the garden. Our students are seeing the results of their hard work.
Our students picked up trash and learned about taking care of the earth.
Thank you Ms. Hart for donating a humingbird feeder and tools!
