GETTING STUCK INTO OUR GARDEN



Yesterday we went on a bit of a food hunt out in our growing garden. We were planning on eating all of our healthy and nutritious food that grew in our class garden. Earlier on Miss Campbell set a dip in the staffroom fridge to go with the ready veges that we were going to pick out. When we got to our garden it was time to dig with the spades and forks to get rid of the nasty weeds. Then we dug holes to put the rock melon and all the other plants in. We also chopped some celery stalks from our garden to go with the dip.
Once the celery stalks had been harvested, Jensen and Leah took them to the staffroom to be cleaned. Once ready, we munched back the delicious celery, smothering the stalks with dip. Surprisingly the boys treasured this healthy treat more than the girls! We are all doing our fair share of work to maintain our class garden. Here is a picture of Riley teaching others to carefully take veges out of the garden and here is another picture of the boys loving their fresh kai.

    That was very scrumptious and healthy at the same time we can’t wait until the celery grows back. Maybe next time we could make a salad with our healthy vegetables. Thank you for making this possible Miss Campbell. Who needs junk food when you’ve got yummy celery and dip? Thanks again Miss Campbell.

  5. Its awesome to see you growing your own food and to try new things. I find it very rewarding to grow vegetables in my garden and then create a whole meal. My favourite things to pick are strawberries and Cherry tomatoes. By the sounds of your description it sounds as though I need plant some celery!!
