Last day of kinder-gardening

Watering-can yoga

Ariel's last day with the kindergartners at the South Whidbey School Farm and Garden for the year! In the fall, these kids will be returning to school eager to eat more kale and bok choy and broccoli flowers and pea sprouts and carrots (always carrots); and a new group of little ones will settle in to this small corner of the gardens to learn to love the earth and get "hard work" all over their hands.

The year started out like this...


And ended up with beautiful flower and vegetable gardens where the kinder-gardeners planted every seed, watered every bed, and built the trellis for the peas. (Plus the big chalk mural to celebrate.)

Also in the garden: tiny, fuzzy, see through birds in a ground nest right on the side of a garden bed. This is why we like leaving the grass tall!
