Harvest time is upon us!! You will notice the garden is changing. Classes have been participating in some intensive harvesting as we prepare for our fall planting. We have harvested all of our pumpkins (14 in total!!) and tons of tomatoes, kale, swiss chard, and basil. All of our harvested vegetables were used last week by our 2nd grade classes to prepare some garden fresh salads served up in the cafeteria during lunch. We served:
Instructions: 1. Chop or slice tomatoes. Cut basil into strips. 2. Mozzarella chees can be cut into cubes, strips or Small discs. 3. Toss or drizzle tomatoes, basil & mozzarella in the balsamic vinegar, olive oil and salt. Check the Garden of Wonders Facebook page for regular updates and many more garden photos!!
