Hello everyone!
Quick reminder that class will meet at the greenhouse today and end at the garden.
Where we will meet:
This week we will be meeting in the Greenhouse and having lunch/ending class in the garden 🌿🌻 (see location in map attached or click herehttps://www.google.com/maps/place/40%C2%B049'51.5%22N+96%C2%B039'29.4%22W/@40.8312533,-96.6587992,19.52z/data=!4m4!3m3!8m2!3d40.8309716!4d-96.6581564?entry=ttu)!!!
Unfortunately, I won't be able to make it to class today as I recover from illness (and my entire family is sick 😔).
Have a great weekend,

Hello everyone!
My heart has been singing these past couple of days as I feel the warmth from the sun and get excited to start seeds! By growing our own food, we are building connections between ourselves and each plant we tend. This week we will be in the greenhouse - mixing up our own potting mix and starting seeds.

Helpful Notes:
* When choosing clothes to wear to class this week: * We will be working with the potting soil - wear clothes you feel comfortable getting some dirt on 🙂 * Dressing in layers may help you stay comfortable! * The greenhouse will be warm again, but when we walk to the garden you may want a light jacket (high for the day is 73 degrees).
Before Class: There is no reading assignment this year, but by all means, keep reading the book! We will continue to weave in chapters when we can.
What we will be doing:
* 9am: Meet at the greenhouse to start onions, strawberries, leafy greens, and some herbs! We will be mixing up (with our hands) our own potting mix and starting seeds. * 10:30/11am: Walk to the garden, visit the site, and eat lunch. * 11:30/noon: Lunch
See you on Saturday!
