After the outside temperature has cooled down in the Sonoran desert, the 3rd grade students at Dysart Elementary have been busy cleaning out the school garden, pulling out rocks and weeds, and I have been busy redigging the raised rows to plant the seeds. A few weeks ago, we had a generous landscaping crew come into the garden to help pull the weeds as well! Unfortunately there was an accident with the irrigation pipes, and we had to postpone the fall planting. But the irrigation system was replaced this week with a more effective and user-friendly one. Our class was eager to finally plant our winter crops!! In Mrs. Gura's garden plot, we planted beets, lemon balm, carrots, bok choy, and parsley. After we planted the seeds and watered the plot, of course...... it began to rain. ha ha ha!!
See the video below about our preparation as readers to go work in the garden.
And here is a video clip of our class planting the seeds in the garden!
