There are vegetables, herbs or flowers, or maybe you will be a combination of one or more of these choices. If you do not have enough room for a garden or your landlord does not allow you to dig the ground, you can always have your potted garden, consider planting cherry tomatoes and basil in a pot. Another way is to Participate in a local farm co-op. Participants receive fresh vegetables in exchange for volunteering for a few hours on the farm each month. Whatever your choice, you need a plan.

This means that you want to plant these things in the mid to late May When these vegetables are harvested, it will be time to plant your tomatoes, onions, lettuce, etc. to.

Your children will be delighted to see the plants as they grow. Teach them they must draw water and weeds so that your plants can grow and be strong enough to produce the crop you will harvest later in the summer or fall. Children are excited to see the fruit begins to grow a flower. It is a great time to explain about pollination and the importance of bees for us. There are lessons all the way to the finals is when your vegetables are mature and ready to be harvested. Think of the pleasure of your children will have while learning the lesson that nature has to teach us our food. There are lessons to be learned about the treatment of soils for pollination and, finally, harvesting the crop. What a wonderful way for children to learn where their food comes from.
