Full of beans! And other great plants :)

What a great planting team! Pictured here are Nathan, Jenna, Kristina, and Monica. Nathan's KidzCreate garden is coming along nicely. The chamomile from last year re-seeded itself and so did a lot of dill! We left a patch of chamomile and a wee bit of dill (though we harvested most of the young dill leaves to add to our evening dinners). Today we planted flower seeds such as cosmos, strawflower, nasturtium and veggies like dwarf corn and beans.
A special note on the beans; they are Tendergreen Beans that were donated to the Garden by the 'Plant a Row, Grow a Row' program. So we planted two rows - one that we will harvest for ourselves, and one that we will harvest for the local food bank. Visit www.growarow.org for more details on this wonderful community initiative.
