The garden this fall is better than ever! It is full of delicious produce thanks to the great work of this summer's interns. If you get a chance please thank the following King Open students who participated in this summer's CitySprouts Internship.
Rakoyan (6th grade), Francisco (6th grade), Ester (6th grade), Tharum (6th grade), Xavier (7th grade), and Corrina (8th grade)
King's 5/6th grade teacher Emily Lyons planted an African garden with her class in the spring and are now harvesting okra, squash, collards, peanuts, millet, and watermelon. Kindergarten teacher, Kristin Bell, brought her class out to the garden for a tour and harvested tomatoes, radishes, and carrots.
September is Childhood Obesity Awareness Month, a time to talk to children about smart food choices, and what a better place to do this than the King Open Garden. Bring your kids out to the garden and show them where good food comes from while harvesting kale, collards, greens, radishes, tomatoes, and eggplants.
