POTATO PLANTING

The Eco Club has met today to plant potatoes.

The potatoes have been 'chitting'

This is when they send up shoots.

We filled black bags with compost.

The compost was about 15cm deep.

Then we labelled the bags.

The potatoes were planted half in and half out.

We were very careful not to knock off the shoots.

The potato growing bags were put out of the wind.

We are working with the school chef to grow food.

Mr Dry, the site manager, worked with members of the Eco-Club to develop our greenhouse on the roof . The children learnt a lot about seeds, plants and trees. Thank you Mr Dry.

Eco-Club enjoyed growing herbs and selling the plants to parents and visitors.
