Join us after school on June 8 for the final workday of the school year. Whether you're a green thumb or just looking to lend a hand, we'd love to have you!

We'll be w**ding, mulching, and harvesting to ensure our gardens flourish over the summer. Don't worry if you can't stay for the entire event - feel free to drop by for a few minutes and see the amazing progress we've made!

Waynewood's garden is in full swing! The first pumpkin has sprouted in the kindergarten progressive pumpkin patch, and we just purchased a load of soil for the garden. We're excited to see how our plants will thrive with this nourishing foundation!

Also, mark your calendars for our upcoming work days after school on April 20, May 18th, and June 8th. We'll be gathering to plant, w**d, and water the garden. Whether you're a seasoned gardener or a novice, all are welcome!

What a great last day of school! We had an abundant harvest of lettuce, kale, radish, yellow squash, and Thai basil. Thank you Arcadia Farm for working with the kids to plant the veggies. We left some lettuce with the front office and gave some to Ms. Hohman, whose last day is today. Happy retirement Ms. Hohman!! The remaining produce was donated to Groveton Baptist Church for their Friday food distribution.

The farm is really flourishing. Looks like we'll have quite a harvest this year! Thank you to for the vegetable plants.

This Monarch was great company while I w**ded the garden. Glad to see he's enjoying the pollinator bed.

The pollinator bed is starting to come together!! Thank you for the native plants and Waynewood Elementary School parent Cassie Garvey for the plan.

Thank you to all the volunteers who came out to last week's workday. Because of all their hard work, the pollinator bed is ready to be planted with plants just picked up from .

A big thank you to members Marjie Morris, John Morris, and Erica Christ (and Erica's family) for designing, amending, and planting the shade garden. Various shade-loving plants were installed, including Virginia Bluebells, Solomon's Seal, Lilly of the Valley, and several varieties of Hosta. All plants were generously donated by members of the community.

The next SEEDs workday is scheduled for May 19 at 4pm. Everyone is welcome!
