Fall Planting - We love it!

In the Fall, the first thing that our students dig into is getting the gardens ready to plant and when that is done, we plant. This week, that is just what we did. Into the ground went transplants of broccoli, cauliflower, swiss chard, kale, and lettuce. We used planting grids and sowed seeds of radish, beets, rutabaga, carrots, lettuce, and leeks. This time of year, when the weather starts to shift, the growing is easier. We water and weed and apply "Rabbit Scram" to keep the cute but pesky bunnies out. With a little luck in about 6 weeks, we should begin to harvest. Ask the Moss Haven Farm kids about what they planted and what they learned on the farm this week.
