A New Greenhouse!




We are gearing up for the spring at the Head Start Family Garden in Fort Bragg. We are planting seeds in our new greenhouse! It was generously donated by Dave at DIY Greenhouse Kits. If you are on the coast you check out his greenhouses at Simply Succulent on Airport Road just north of Fort Bragg, or on the web at doityourselfgreenhousekits.com. Thanks Dave!!!




We also planted raspberry bushes this month that should be bearing delicious ripe berries when the next school year starts up in August.




More broccoli and lettuce starts went in last week and we are still harvesting kale, chard and herbs.



And of course our favorite garden friends…the worms! This week they came inside for a classroom visit on a rainy day.



We’ll be having a garden work party on March 20th along with all the other Gardens’ Project gardens for the Spring Garden Blitz. Our focus will be digging three more beds and starting a mural on the tool shed. Many thanks to Rossi’s for donating the paint!
