What are we doing in the garden?• Composting

– Recycle unused vegetables/fruits and plants to become garden nutrients

• Planting– Start new life enabling growth and future harvest

• Maintaining– Care for garden by giving plants needed water, air, nutrients, and sunlight

• Harvesting– Get produce from garden to table

Dig, plant seeds, water

Gather dead plants, salad bar extras, and paper to “cook” and break down in compost bin

Pick a fruit/vegetable and enjoy!
