For 12 weeks, the second graders will be deepening their understanding of the role producers and consumers play in our economy. Their garden- and kitchen-based unit will culminate in their own student-run farmers market in early April! For our first class, students cared for the plants and animals that help our school garden thrive. They braved some wet weather and found earthworms to feed to the chickens, collected dead leaves, explored the dig zone, and enjoyed a seasonal garden snack of Moro blood oranges.
