Here at Miss Amy’s we have been enjoying the warm weather. We’ve all got Spring Fever! The children (and teachers) are more than excited to start getting their hands dirty on the playground.
We have signed up for the Grow Your Own project which is a food access program. The program was created by Appalachian Sustainable Development . Their goal is to grow food, communities and opportunities to build a thriving Appalachia. They have been successful with this too, last year they grew 14,000 pounds of food to feed families in our region! We are thrilled to be a part of the program and the children are eager to map out our garden spots!
We are still waiting for our new grass to take root ( 8 more days) , but we just couldn’t wait to get our hands on it. So we brought in a roll of sod a.k.a “the grass burrito” and we inspected the roots with our magnifying glasses.
Then we rolled out our grass and enjoyed! It’s been a year since the kids touched new, growing grass. It was WONDERFUL!
