Hi
from Lunenburg! We're happy to have our class (or school) be a
Mystery Garden. Although my e-mail comes to you from Mahone Bay,
Nova Scotia, our school is actually in Lunenburg, a UNESCO World
Heritage site (about 10 kms away).
We
are Primary students 5 years old working with the grade 5 students.
Our older students manage small school gardens. Last year we grew
potatoes, chives, parsley and tomatoes along with our tulips.
Our biggest concern was the hungry deer! Our tulips were planted
on a slope (we don't have much level ground!) and they emerged
first on the top of the slope where the snow had melted. Even
the youngest students figured that one out!
Find
us on the map and watch to see when our tulips emerge. When do
you think they will?
