WPS Community Children’s Garden

Spring has definitely arrived! There are many weeds in the garden space, both coming up in the gravel paths as well as within the garden beds. If anyone has some free time to pop down to the garden and pick a few weeds, any help would be appreciated (even 10 mins before or after school pickup and drop off). 

 

This week we spent our time weeding one of the beds and planting radish and beetroot seeds.

Nicole brought some strawberry stolons and stem cuttings into garden club, so we potted those up. These and many other pot plants will be available for sale at the Carlsruhe Fair.
