On this day, students participated in planting a variety on different crops, including squash. 

Did you know that there are two different types of squash? These are summer and winter squash. 

Summer squash, like zucchini, has think skin and can be eaten whole. Winter squash, like pumpkin, on the other hand have robust skin and seeds that must be removed before consumption.
