Middle School Language Arts teacher Emily Williams and 4th Grade teacher Kendall Crow are the club co-sponsors.
Mrs. Williams explains:
"At Redd School we often ask the question 'what's best for the environment?' Although the answers are endless, one thing we can do is to teach our children how to love and respect nature. This year Redd School established a Garden Club for grades 3-8. A garden is an excellent place to encourage a child's creativity and develop self -discipline."
"The club exposes students to the beauty of nature and the impact we can have on the local and global environment. We hope to reap the fruits of our planting and participate in a local farmer's market in the fall/spring! Details about the farmer's market can be found on the following website: www.feastofartisans.com "
Ms. Crow and Mrs. Williams are dedicated to teaching students the immediate and long-term benefits of planting and maintaining their own gardens.
Check back in a couple of weeks for a progress report on the "crops"!!
Happy planting!
