Montessori Children’s Garden

 

This year we have trimmed up our treasured hackberry tree to maintain its health. We have replaced old stumps along borders with new, added a portable water jug to the sandbox area during the summer months, and added new logs in the building area. With parental help, our border areas were weeded, new fall and spring/summer flowers were planted, and mulched.

In our garden we have creating an archway for vining plants such as squash, cucumbers, and melons. The children have helped plant a variety of pollinator friendly flowers such as cosmos, chamomile, snapdragons, sunflowers, borage, beebalm, and zinnia.
