This week, Our Gardening Club worked hard in small groups to get lots of important jobs done!
Another delicious batch of juicy, sweet strawberries were ready for harvesting - and of course, tasting!
We learnt about successive sowing and planted more seeds so we can enjoy follow/on crops throughout the season.
Our compost heap is coming along nicely, with more layers added this week. One group of children mixed up a fresh batch of compost and filled flowerpots in preparation for planting the summer bedding plants we've been carefully growing from seed in the polytunnel.
The all-important task of watering was carried out meticulously- our plants are thriving thanks to our free-fingered gardeners!
We also transplanted a new batch of tomato plants, grown from seed, into their tins ready for our upcoming tomato plant sale. Watch this space for more updates on this!
The cress pot men were ready to be taken home!
