The Garden is Put to Bed

The Learning Garden is officially put to bed for the winter season. The pictures below show students  harvesting vegetables, planting garlic and daffodil bulbs that we will all enjoy next year. We have had a successful fall garden season at FES and look forward to gardening again in the spring.
