Day campers leave and MACSA students arrive to become garden-wise. Led by Garden Director and guru, Judy Hess, students tour the vegetable beds.
One of this week's lessons was to learn about our friendly worms and how they make wonderful nutrients for the garden. The worms digest food scraps and other edible materials such as newspaper. Students learn worm anatomy while actually digging into the worm bin and finding the sometimes elusive creatures.
Students are also introduced to the recycling of old vegetation and food scraps, known as "composting".
