The Gardens are Going Off!

Thanks to the considerable efforts of students during the last week of 2021 our gardens are thriving. We weeded, moved compost and planted in the torrential rain and now we can see the fruits of our labour. It is great to see kids interacting with the plants, eating beans as they appear, finding new vegetables emerging and noting the insect life amongst the plants. We found a huge Wēta upon the beans yesterday! We are continuing to water and care for the plants too and the summer warmth is definitely a bonus. We are planning to do some cooking with the produce too. Watch this space!
