A snowy morning, and a reading of "Compost Stew"!

A tour of TFA on this snowy morning, a reading of one of my favourite books to teach about what to compost (Earth Week this week!) and a challenge about our seedlings!

CHALLENGE: What do you notice about the lovely tray of seedling in this photo? Where is the sun coming from and which way are the plants leaning? Why do you think they are doing that? Just like our talks about what a fire needs for food, what do plants need to live?

So far in our seeding tray we have:
- Cantaloupe
- Watermelon
- Kale
- Cilantro
- Dill
- Basil
- Golden Beets
- Candy Stripe Beets

We will be adding more as the season gets warmer! Do you have a garden? Could you make a small one? What kind of plants are YOU growing?
