🌱πŸ₯— Putting lessons into action!

After spending the past several weeks learning about plant growth, where food comes from, and the important role farmers play, the kindergarteners at Lincoln Elementary got to enjoy the harvest from their Tower Garden!

Students harvested fresh vegetables, created their own salads, and even used the veggies to help identify the parts of a plant. There’s nothing better than seeing hands-on learning come full circle β€” from seed to salad! 🌿

We’ve loved partnering with these young learners and helping them grow their knowledge one lesson at a time. πŸ’›πŸ–€
