Gardening Group at Moreland Primary - Report

Twice a week, a group of grade 5/6s get their hands dirty working in a gardening group with John and Muharrem. They are volunteer workers from **Time Help** and they share their time and knowledge with us.We do different jobs like weeding and planting and we have also tasted some of the vegetables like the carrots. Picked fresh from the ground they are so crunchy and juicy. Sometimes John lets us take some herbs such as coriander and parsley to spice up our cooking at home. When I was chosen for the gardening group I went with three other people, who were Saleh, Fatima and Malak. The boys worked with John and the girls worked with Muharrem.

We were digging up the roots of the plants that had finished growing and we were throwing them in a wheelbarrow so we could put them in the compost bin.Another group have planted some tomato plants and we hope to be eating our own, fresh, juicy tomatoes soon.

 * We have plenty ** ** of water in our water tanks and would like to invite more families to choose a planter box to grow their own plants. You too can enjoy your own, freshly grown vegetables. They are DELICIOUS and HEALTHY! ** By Ertem Bolatcan
