School Gardening
I have been helping out at a local school garden for a couple of seasons now. I had hoped to launch a dedicated blog on the subject but this no longer seems practical.* I will do a couple of posts here to describe some of the experiences we have had to date.
By way of introduction here is how the garden looked last year:
Wildflower Garden
Gateway off Playground
Side on view
Brassicas and Salad Beds
Our Greenhouse
Cucurbits
Potatoes in Sacks
*Such a blog would best be run by the schoolchildren themselves as part of the curriculum. The school does have a page devoted to the garden which has a calendar and some updates. You can see this at the following link Garden Page .
Have you seen my website The School Vegetable Patch? I haven’t done any work on it for a while but it still seems to get some visitors.
ReplyDeleteYes Sue. It is exemplary and I recommend it to anyone running a school garden. http://www.theschoolvegetablepatch.co.uk/
