Brooke says: Today is our last garden science day at Toledo Elementary School for the school year. We will celebrate with fresh produce from the garden, a special dessert and installation of our garden sign. Parents are welcome to come check out the garden and maybe pull a couple weeds.
We are also setting up a watering schedule for the summer. The kids have built a wonderful garden and it's crucial that it gets watered over the summer so there will be a nice harvest for them this Fall. (District Facebook link here)
