Each day, three third graders from Anne Siskin’s Willow Creek Academy class join Barbara Adams in the garden to water the crops, tend the chickens, and record weather, temperature, wind direction and air pressure. Please follow along at the Sunflower Sentry Kids Daily Garden Journal!

 

Sunflowers Light Up Lives

Glorious sunflowers teach our kids the true meaning of sustainability. Watch as they harvest seeds, plant, nurture and thrill as each new sunflower opens and glows brightly.

Learning to Bloom

It took a lot of us—parents and kids alike—rolling up our sleeves and getting our hands dirty to restore this garden to its former glory. Watch it transform from messy to magical.

Caring for the Coop

With our garden in place, it was time to bring in the chickens. We’ve had a blast learning to care for our new hens and, of course, enjoying plenty of farm-fresh eggs in our recipes.
