Getting our hands DIRTY!

Today was the day we got to plant our gardens.  We were divided into teams and each team picked a vegetable or flower to plant.  They will be responsible for recording and maintaining everything in their row.

We took some time to think about the seeds and what part of the plant it came from.  The snow pea team (Samuel, Catherine, and Cameron) learned that the pea is the seed.  The Jalapeno team (Joshua, Mackenzie, Micah, and Emma) learned that the seeds are the hot part of the jalapeno.  We all saw seed in different sizes and shapes!

We are hoping to enjoy lots of yummy vegetables and a few pretty flowers!  Happy Growing.
