Mountain Song Agricultural Arts

Hearts created on the fence at MSCS garden to announce the love we have for all of our students - and especially for our graduates.

In a little over two weeks the garden has greened up and flowered at MSCS. Potatoes, greens, garlic, leeks, rhubarb and more! Today many different types of tomatoes were planted! There are still a few plants available for sale (not too many) - just contact Mr. Adam. I tried to take the photo today the same place as the photo 5/16 so you can compare!

Our Ag Arts team planted more than 300 seeds last week--practicing social distancing, of course! We are so thankful to have a magical outdoor space where we can bring light and beauty to our community during these challenging times.

Happy First Day of Spring! Mr. Adam and Ms. Griffin celebrated early yesterday by washing old pots that can hold more than 400 soon-to-be-planted seeds. Even while our students are out of school, we will continue to take care of our animals and plant veggies in preparation for their return.

Last week we had a big salad party with 2nd grade - they love picking, chopping and mixing all the ingredients for a fresh healthy salad. Then the eating - YUM! We miss you!
