This past month has flown by and not much has been published...we have all been in the garden watching the herbs grow, waiting for the soil to warm up and playing games of spud, tag and jackpot. The students have taken advantage of every moment it is not raining.
The camp fire group Beyond the Flowers has adopted a portion of the garden to add more herbs. They are meeting every Monday at 4pm to garden; volunteers are welcome - the more people, the more fun!
In the green houses we have tomatoes, sunflowers, peppers, leeks, basil, broccoli, marigolds, carrots, chard, lettuce and more. The k/1 classes seeded the flats and have been keeping all of the seeds happy. Volunteers have kept all of the plants well watered.
Right now Columbus Public Schools have given us the OK to garden at Everett through the summer. In August the students from Indianola Informal School will be moved to Crestview School on Webber Rd. Everett Community Garden Club will meet throughout the summer on Monday evenings at 7pm beginning June 1st.
