The Potatoes Are In!

Thanks to everyone who helped make our Green Day celebration a huge success! With the help of parent volunteers our students planted some 160 potato plants!!!!!! It was so much fun watching the kiddoes get their hands dirty. And they were so excited to know they will get a chance to eat what they planted in their hot lunches this fall!

Green Day in the Garden

Join us Thursday, May 20th from 3-5 pm in the garden for Longfellow's second annual Green Day celebration. There will be live music, demonstrations, and information on easy ways to incorporate eco-friendly practices into your everyday life. Students will also have an opportunity to help plant potatoes in the raised vegetable beds. If all goes as planned, these potatoes will be harvested in the fall and served in students' hot lunches in conjunction with Maine Harvest Lunch!
