Fall Highlights from the Lindley Garden

As we begin to think about spring, it's also fun to remember what we did in the fall. Here are some of our highlights:

We planted a small crop of corn before school let out, and it was in perfect form when kids returned to school. So many children had never seen corn growing! When it dried, we made a little "corn maze" for the younger students, and then created a scarecrow with the stalks! "Bob" withstood many a storm this fall!

Since kindergartners work on counting, we had them in the garden counting okra seeds they harvested. Each child had an index card with a number from 10-25 for the number of seeds they had to count and attach to tape on their card.
