Plant Distribution Day has moved to Tuesday, May 24 due to the cool, cloudy weather.  Pick-up is from 3:30-5:30pm at Humboldt High School parking lot.  More details at https://sites.google.com/stpaul.k12.mn.us/grow/resources 

 

 

Start recruiting for Summer Care volunteers! If your school garden is accessible during the summer, reach out to families, neighbors and staff to care for the garden.  It's helpful to volunteers to give it some structure.  See two strategies to recruit and track weekly volunteers at https://sites.google.com/stpaul.k12.mn.us/grow/resources  (just below Plant Pick-up info) 

 

Shoutout what's happening in the garden!  Share with staff and families what's happening in the garden through pictures and short descriptions.  What might classrooms come to see or discover when they come to visit the garden?  

 

Did you already plant in the garden?  Please share pictures and stories of gardening!  It fills our bucket sooo much!  

 

Mulchingly yours!  Kirsten
