Kids Making Student Gardens

Garden Club becomes the ISB Parent Garden Committee

This year, some ISB parents are taking over the responsibility of the Lower School Garden. It was a bit of work to run by myself and I thought this would be a great way to get more families involved in our focus on being a "Green School".

In between the spring bulbs, we planted garlic, thyme, and chives.

Sewing the seeds of love...
