Summer Break!
Hello everyone, I’m writing this from Thailand, where I went for summer break. This is a place of verdant abundance, where everything grows at breakneck speed year round. While our garden at Washington Elementary School is not year round it is certainly a verdant wonderland. I see evidence of seeds I planted, but also evidence of seeds that fell in years past from other gardening efforts. I see squash of some sort next to pink popcorn that I planted. There is a ton of tomatoes and some okra somewhere in that thicket. We had a student come with seeds from his apple that may be reaching for the sky. Our garden is a reminder of life’s indomitable will. Everything on the planet is pushing forward, working with what it has, and finding a place to thrive. I love the overflowing mishmash of plants in our garden, and we look forward to making it better next year.
