Today we went to the farm and gathered in a circle. We always start farm class in a circle. We had a little talk and reviewed the rules. We got on our gloves…and weeded the garlic bed. We measured the constant and the tallest plants. We found that the constant garlic actually shrunk and our tallest garlic plant grew 1”. It was cold outside with the wind blowing. The Lower Elementary got to pick two turnips each. After they picked them they removed the leafy part at the top and composted the leaves. The reason they picked two each was so the Upper Elementary would have one to take home as well. Before that, we talked about tools and went on a tool exploration of the garden. We found lots of tools that serve a purpose and make our jobs easier on the farm.
