Welcome back and ready for a new year !

We are back from the summer holiday and student are ready to start making new discoveries in the garden. This summer has been very hard. The weather has been very hot and rainy so weeds overwhelmed the summer volunteers. But we finally have huge and beautiful sunflowers for the kids to harvest. There is plenty of material to learn about weeds, how to keep them in control without the use of chemicals and how the weather can affect the harvest. This year the USA have been battled with bad weather on all sides and farmers are feeling the brutality of nature. Food price may be on the high hand this year. There is a need for humanity to start to respect nature boundaries and limits and work on solving climate change. I hope to see many parents in the garden. Teachers are ready, student are ready.
