"Magic Happens in the Garden!"
Such excitement on Friday as we gathered to pick our first strawberries which were small but delicious! We also picked our first tiny carrots (not quite enough to share this time)...
Our Sunflowers are ready for transplanting into one of the apple crates but the rain kept students indoors during the week; hopefully the rain will stay away we'll do this soon so we can watch them grow over coming weeks...
Nathanael and Tom's watermelon seedlings are growing so fast that they too need to be planted out very soon so they can spread!
Some of the students helped me to make a couple of arches between our herb planter boxes...They looked great but then we decided to make them even prettier by decorating them with beautiful little posies of Lavender, Sweet Peas, Pansies and Freesias!
The students are so proud and eager to show what they've been planting and hope you will visit us in our garden very soon!
Thank you Bree for the beautiful windmill which will be assembled and added to the Butterfly Border next week.
Thank you to Brian (Morrison and Mabel's Pop) for picking up and delivering bags of potting mix as well as branches which will be used in our new nature playground.
