This past week 4th grade had the pleasure of meeting former Cary mayor Glen Lang. Mr.Lang, now in retirement, spends his days as a second career farmer. Mr Lang is co owner of LL Urban Farms. Hydroponic lettuce is main crop of LL Urban Farms, so Mr. Lang was able to share his expertise with our entire 4th grade! Since we are brand new to the world of hydroponics, we were super excited to hear his gardening tips. We especially liked that Mr. Lang shared with us that he learned everything he knows about farming from YouTube!! So we will definitely be checking out some videos on hydroponic farming in the coming weeks! To prepare for his visit, each student came up with a question or two to ask!
We are very excited to see how well our hydroponic lettuce grows so that we can have Mr. Lang come back!!
