We had just started our partnership with Roosevelt High School (click here for details), and worked with them for a few days when it was time for spring break.
The kids get time off, but somebody still has to water the plants.
So the advisor and I have been making sure that everything got lots of TLC.
The Horseradish is off to a great start.
The Thyme and Marjoram were the first ones to sprout and they are really looking good.
The Dill, Oregano, Salad Burnet, Savory, and Bunching Onions, have all sprouted, and many of the edible flowers we planted are showing a few sprouts per tray.
By next week, when the kids come back to school, there should be lots and lots of seedlings for them study.
We are very excited about this partnership and, because we want to share our progress with everyone we can, this post will be linked to Fertilizer Friday, a blog party where garden enthusiasts share the happenings from their gardens.

Everything looks great. I haven't gotten too far into veggie gardening yet, but perhaps herbs would be a good way for me to start. I love garden blogs! Thanks for visiting and commenting on mine.
