Micro-greens and Peas

We are very excited to get our growing season going this coming Monday as part of our Martin Luther King celebration and day of service. We will be demonstrating how to build and start salad boxes, build mini greenhouses out of reclaimed plastice tomato and salad boxes for microgreens, and building pea trellises for our pea gardens that will be planted in late February or early March.

5th grade students visited Real Food Farm's hoop houses yesterday. They toured the facilities, spoke with the farm manager and farm workers. Real Food Farm has been selling some of their produce at school. Last week they sold out in an hour and one half!
