WPS Community Children’s Garden

With summer well behind us and winter on the way, we’re in the middle of harvesting all the warm weather produce and putting in the cooler weather plants. At the end of term 1 Garden Club students walked off to class with arms laden full of delicious potatoes, carrots, raspberries, tomatoes, silverbeet, etc, etc.

With still more potatoes to be dug up, pumpkins to be picked and garden beds to be cleared out and planted with winter produce, there is a lot to do.
