A Great Start to 2021

Welcome back to Arataki School Garden club. We have started the year with 120 tamariki and we are so excited that so many tamariki are coming out into the gardens each fortnight.

We started the year talking about how a little seed can grow into big vegetables and looking at how a seed turns into a plant.

We made a big batch of seed raising mix so we can sow our winter seeds and for some of us to take home and grow some vegetables there.

We had a whole heap of basil so one of the tamariki took it home and made pesto for the whole club. We all agreed it was the best pesto ever made.
