Garden Club
This is a crazy time. Our Garden Club started and then stopped. I have been toying around with different scenarios of Garden Club and how we can continue for the spring. We can't use the facilities or the greenhouse. So, I have come up with a plan to do a Virtual Garden Club. I plan to have an online presence with experiments and walks. around my yard and the field (maybe even the pond scum) starting next Wed., April 1st.
I am going to start with buds and blooms. My yard will be great for that. I have lots of ideas... All video links with questions and such will be presented here as well as going out on REMIND. I will try to get it on all 4 Reminds (Fall and Spring, however the link listed below will work for sure if you want to update to that.
I look forward to connecting with you soon about GARDENING Lakeland Hills Virtual style...
See weekly reminders and activities for each group below or on your own REMIND app. (to be updated when students are put into groups)
