Wednesday, 8 July 2015. Library in the Garden! Last Saturday we had Larissa from the Calgary Public Library join us for story time. She brought books that could be signed out by the kids, and shared information about the public library's 2015 Summer Reading Challenge. This is a great opportunity to enjoy reading while you discover amazing new books and you can even win prizes! Our time was now coming to an end but we always are ready for some fun games! A big thank you to everyone! 16 July 2015 at 03:05.

Tuesday, 2 September 2014. And the Season Ends with Worms! The children were especially excited to go on a hunt for worm cocoons. Did you know that worms lay cocoons and not eggs? Together, we learned about composting with worms and the benefits of practicing vermiculture in a community garden. Harvesting was one of the main activities on the agenda as we had delicious kale, beans, peas, beets, carrots, swiss chard, spinach, pumpkins and various other types of squash to pick and take home! We are a famil...

When we hear cycle of life our minds may not immediately go to what this really entails but thanks to Chrissy from Puzzle Permaculture we got the full low down on Waste in Our World. She talked about the sun side of life and the dark side. The sun side being those creatures that get their nutrients from the sunshine, plants, etc. But what about the waste these creatures create. yes humans too! What is our waste and how does this tie in to a positive life cycle?

Kids Grow!: August 2015
http://kidsgrowgardening.blogspot.com/2015_08_01_archive.html
Wednesday, 26 August 2015. Let's Go on a Scavenger Hunt! We lovingly watered these plants with great care as to be careful not to get too much water on the leaves. It water sits on the leaves in the hot sun, they can be singed and in very wet conditions, mould has a more suitable environment to grow. Following our gardening segment, we decided to read a story, in fact a guessing game, about plant identification! The purpose of these cards is to encourage trying new vegetables in the garden and embracing ...
