Ms. Palo's 4h Graders Plant Seeds

This week Ms. Palo's 4th graders planted seeds in their raised bed garden.  To prepare the soil we first added Worm-Gro from Kellogg's Garden Supply. Next the children measured the dimensions of the bed and divided it in half. Half will be planted by this class and half by another class.

The children planted four types of seeds. 1) Tennis Ball Lettuce from Baker Creek which is a vegetable in the Slow Food Ark of Taste and was grown by Thomas Jefferson; 2) Yellow and Orange Carrots from Renee's Garden; 3) Red Planet Radishes and 4) Red Beets.

Each of the three groups that planted had a scribe that recorded what we planted.
