What have you learnt about rice in Kitchen Garden the last four weeks ? 

Asha 

'The fried rice tasted kind of sweet and kind of savoury. It was flavoursome, and the vegies really shined.

I enjoyed learning about the process of growing rice on farms in Australia. First the rice is planted by a small aeroplane. When it grows it is collected by a tractor and gets taken to a shed to go through another machine.'

'I enjoyed making fried rice. It was so delicious. I loved chopping the peppers.'
