Friendship Garden Progress

Our Poem for this week...

April Garden Fun

April is here, the cold is gone
The sun just peeked through the clouds
All around us spring has bloomed
Of our garden we are so proud

The April rains have saved out soil
The earthworms helped out too
The dived through the garden and made
Tunnels under all the roots

We missed our garden while we were gone
For Spring Break when school was closed
We hoped and wished it would be OK
I think the plants started to grow!




What have we seen????

At first the plants were little, but the next time they grew a little bit bigger.

I saw the potato plant grow bigger.

The celery stalk is starting to grow.

Our garden is getting better and better, because of our earthworms. 

The earthworms are making tunnels so the roots can get the water they need.

The plants have been growing a lot, because of the rains and the earthworms.

The plants have sprouted some more.

Our onion plant grew some leaves.

We grew an onion in water. It grew leaves and roots. It got so big and so stinky that we had to move it to the garden!

The plants started to grow roots. 

The earthworms helped our plants by eating the dead plants and made new nutrients.

The rain and sun are helping our garden grow. 

One of the onions is so big that it's growing over the edge of the garden!

The plants are growing really really big... maybe we should start picking the vegetables.

Our garden is so big with all the plants inside... the soil, sun, and rain has been helping it grow. 

Our plants are so big that we are running out of space in our garden!

All the plants look a little different and a little the same. 

We have needed to prune the potato plants.

Our garden is growing bigger and bigger and bigger. 

We've had to learn to be patient and give the vegetables time to grow... they're not ready yet!
