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!

Fanwood – Scotch Plains
Fanwood-Scotch Plains YMCA has welcomed us for a tour of their unique garden!
While there are many unique and fascinating plants throughout all the garden we have visited, there’s one in this YMCA that caught our eye.
Can anyone guess what it’s called?
Hint: It’s the pink plant pictured below.
Students and staff members of St. Bartholomew’s were joined by Jackie of Groundwork Elizabeth for an in-depth mini lesson on plants and gardening!
Not only were students able to learn about this topic, they were also able to plant their very own tomatoes, basil, and milkweed among many others. Groundwork Elizabeth member Jackie wasn’t the only special guest, students were joined by none other than earthworms!
Did you know that there are approximately 2,700 different kind of earthworms? In addition, earthworms have the ability to replace or replicate lost segments.
Thank you to all who participated and made this possible.
