This year the children are going to be learning about where their food comes from and the journey from field to fork. To support this we welcomed the arrival of new raised beds into the nursery playground.
Together we built the beds, lined the grass with cardboard and filled them with compost. They are now ready for some green manure to be sown to prepare the soil for planting in the spring.
Over the next few months the children and staff will be working together to plan which fruits, vegetables, herbs and flowers we are going to plant across the year.
We are looking forward to planting, tending and eating our own food. If you or your family would like to share your knowledge or skills with us we would welcome your support.
