They chopped, peeled, grated, and tasted red carrots from the farm that they mixed with fresh lettuce greens from their hydroponic tower and a homemade vinaigrette. Delicious!

On Friday, Ms. Benasaraf hosted the district’s first “Pick Your Own” Farmers Market at 396K @ 181.
“I wanted to share some pictures from our farmer’s market that took place during today’s gallery walk! Students and parents who visited the room had opportunities to pick tomatoes, herbs, and lettuce directly off our towers to taste and to bring home in provided bags!”
Teachers at the Math in the Garden PD investigated tree pits and a local playground for patterns, shapes, and measurement. They found math all around us!
