How we celebrated Earth Day

We put in our summer garden!

Each homeroom chose what they wanted to plant, using a list of Heather’s suggestions and coming up with their own ideas.  Homerooms have patches in the greenhouse, in the gardens below the primary playground, and in the terraced gardens. We planted corn, beans, watermelon, tomatoes, carrots, strawberries, chives, parsley, herbs, kholrabi. okra, sunflowers, zinnias, and luffas! We also did some spring cleaning in the desert around the school while we were at it.

Here’s some of what we overheard:

“What are you planting? Green beans? My favorite!”

“What’s the matter? You walk in it whenever you go in the goat pen.”

Sara:   “I love this day! I got to plant things!”
