The Envirogroup at Work

On 21st May the Envirogroup had their second meeting and in the afternoon had a working bee to dig over and weed the existing raised garden beds. After that we sowed lupin seeds in one bed as a nitrogen-fixing crop and in the other we planted cabbage, broccoli and celery seedlings. We also planted a rhubarb plant in one of the tyres so look out for some yummy rhubarb desserts in the future!
The other task was to put together our 'Worm Cafe' which is now up and running, thanks to Farmer Brown in Richmond who provided us with worms free of charge.
We plan on getting all classes interested in making a bird feeder and some of the senior students are researching plans for us.
Watch this space!
