The garden club and Mr Webster started building five new raised veggie beds – they had to measure the area and design the beds to best utilise the space. And now our growing space has doubled in size!
The wood was all cut to size and put together by the students. We worked as a team to relocate soil from an old garden bed into a new one, and we also had two tonnes of rich garden soil delivered! After lots of hard work and enthusiasm the new beds now just need mulch, and will then be ready for planting – just in time for spring!
We harvested so much kumara! Orange ones, purple ones, big ones and small ones. We just kept digging and finding more and more. There was enough to take home and share with families.
