Jeremy K of 721X writes that “We have 300 plus plants started. We’re comparing florescent and LED lighting.”
Plant, Learn, Grow is pleased to announce the launch of the Virtual Seed Bank (VSB), which can be accessed from our website’s menu. Here’s how it works:
The VSB is a catalogue that tells you which seeds are available from other D75 schools. At the moment, we are cataloguing fruits, vegetables, herbs, and companion plants.
If your school has seeds to share, please email telling us which seeds you have and any relevant information about the plant. If possible, also include an image of the plant and/or seeds.
Teachers will be able to visit the VSB and contact teachers directly with requests for seeds.
Thanks Lori Heffez!
During the workshop, I spied some ground rainbows. Good work, sprinkler!
Preparing for the winter: composting, final harvest and winter cover crops at the 811X outdoor garden. Also, the 811X Farmers Market is up and running every Thursday. Stop by and pick up some winter vegetables and herbs!
Here is a nice article about Growing School Gardens in Winter. There are plenty of good ideas.
FYI: A hubbard is a type of winter squash.
Sneak peak.. Check out the new hydroponics and aquaponics lab and classroom at 811X!
