Getting Ready for Spring!
The students took advantage of the warm weather to take a trip to check the garden. While they were there, they set up the tables so we could have class in the garden once spring arrives.

Our community at the PISC Vera Garden has come together to prepare for Spring! Not only is our compost set, but we also have lettuce coming up!
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

November & December Sweet Potatoes
The warm weather we had in November allowed us to keep our sweet potatoes in their grow bag for longer than we originally planned. The largest purple sweet potato we grew weighed a whopping 3.6 pounds!
Getting Ready for Winter
As the days get shorter, we see the end of our vegetables, but our flowers are as vibrant as ever! It’s time to prepare for winter! Thank you, Union County, for your help. It was a very good year!

Preparing the Garden for Winter
The students used the left over bales of hay and corn stalks from our pumpkin patch to prepare the beds for winter. They covered the beds with the hay. We also put up our new garden sign.

End of Season Update:
While the garden season is coming to a close, we still have bell peppers, swiss chard and sweet peppers growing beautifully! Our melons and tomatoes had a great season, and we can’t wait to plant them again next season!

Students visited the beautiful PISC garden where they learned about all the different plants that are currently being grown!
