Gardening in the Outdoor Classroom

 4/16/24

Today in the outdoor classroom the Almond class planted some fruits, veggies and flowers in our classes garden box! 

After we planted 

We first worked on weeding out all the preexisting plants from our gardens last year! My friends were great at digging up all the weeds!!

Before weeding

We then separated our garden out to see where we should plant each our our fruits, veggies and flowers! 

My friends were great helpers, the that wanted to help sprinkled the fruits in veggies in the garden! 

We planted cucumbers, watermelon, green peppers, tomatoes, basil, parsley, some pretty wild flowers and sunflowers 

We can’t wait to see them grow soon and are happy the rain is going to water them for us tonight and tomorrow!
