Spring Garden

Mrs. Carley helped us prepare the garden for the Spring.  Students spent time pulling up the Fall garden, leaving a few plants behind, and tilling the soil.  Mrs. Carley taught the students about prepping the beds for planting, watering, fertilizing the soil, and amounts of sunlight.  We added corn, tomatoes, new herbs, and other yummy veggies.  A strawberry plant that has already begun to produce two strawberries was also added.  The students look forward to Mrs. Carley's visits and hopefully we will have a spring tasting before school gets out.
