Instructor: Heather Sperling, MES parent and the Education Outreach Coordinator at the Brattleboro Food Coop, leads this time of learning and playing in the school’s garden.  Participants will make tasty seasonal recipes and enjoy a yummy snack!  This is a free program being offered in conjunction with the Coop.

Camp update: Our first garden camp session was a blast!  We began with a little bit of garden work, watering and harvesting some beautiful garlic scapes.  We then played the very popular game called Camouflage where Aidan tried to trick us with his hat decoy!  We collected some sticks and made beautiful garden journals, had a mini botany lesson and enjoyed a yummy snack!  Before we knew it, the morning was over.  We can’t wait until next time, hope you can join us too!

If your family is interested in being involved, please call Heather at 254-3267 or email her at <hsperling@rocketmail.com> to sign up.  There is no deadline, just call sometime before the next gathering.
