Planting Vegetables and Flowers for Winter

When we got back to kindy after “lockdown” it was time to prepare our garden for winter vegetables and flowers. One of our families donated some lovely plants, and our team of enthusiastic helpers planted them into our raised garden beds. There were broccoli, bok choy, spinach, beetroot, pansy, calendula and lobelia. The children learnt how to carefully hold the plants to take care of the leaves and tiny roots as they planted them into the soil.    We will all need to look after our plants while they grow and perhaps when they are big enough we will get to eat some of the vegetables.
