Making scarecrows to protect our crops!

In growbag session 2 we learnt about mulching crops to slow down the growth of weeds and to prevent evaporation of water from the plants.

Growbag session 1 May 2019

We began by introduing Mrs Wormersley to our very bare raised beds.

Each class has a bed.  We looked at vegetables families and how we need to grow vegeatbles of the same families together.  We planted courgettes, broad beans, potatoes, kale, sprouts and pumpkins, to name a few.  What a wonderful day we had! 

At last our raised beds were full of vegetables, ready to provide us with food for the kitchen!
