On Tuesday, Nov. 21st we planted our Red Emperor Tulips in our garden bed with Mrs. Swentzel's class, who are also Journey North Field team members. It was a blustery day, but we enjoyed putting the finishing touches on our bed and planting the bulbs. Our new principal enjoyed joining us and helping with the digging. We have worked with our industrial arts teacher to create a sign for our garden. The tulips are just one part of this project. We began our butterfly and hummingbird garden beds last year in the same garden. So as the warm weather nears we hope to be a special stopping place for our migratory animals, and a beautiful garden to view. We will keep you informed of the ground temperature in the tulip bed and on how they progress in the spring.
