Week 10 (week 5 of new group)
Final session today. After some fruit and drinks, we had a look at some of the excellent results that have come from the children's (and parents) efforts and hard work.
|
This is the square foot garden that group 1 planted in week 2. The rocket has really taken over. |
|
And the one more recently planted by group 2. The runner beans have grown quickly. |
|
|
|
|
There were a couple of jobs to complete, including planting the remaining artichokes and another row of peas
|
Digging out the pea trench | |
Another job was to remove the flowers from the kale plants. This delays them going to seed and will
encourage leaf growth and extend the harvest.
|
Taking part in the end-of-project evaluation |
Then it was time for fun and games....
...followed by the barbecue..
|
Preparing a side salad from freshly-harvested salad leaves | |
|
Barbecuing.....veggie burgers |
That's it! The project is over! It has been a great success and enjoyed by all. Thanks to all who have been involved. Perhaps there'll be another.....watch this space!
