Limeade Taste Test

Garden Projects:
Limeade: Today in the garden we picked fresh limes from our lime tree and made limeade using agave sweetener. We then picked herbs from the garden to infuse our limeade. Children got to choose from rosemary, mint, or lavendar-flavored limeade. Mint was the most popular. Try it at home!

Bean TeePee:
The kids helped build a bean teepee from bamboo poles that we tied together. We planted pole beans around the bottom that will crawl up the bamboo and make a green hideout for kids. We used rocks for the "floor" of the teepee and a tree stump to sit on.

Garden-Themed Activity:
Kids had the option to use bug stencils to draw and color pictures of their own creation. Lots of creative art pieces!

Thank you Rebecca Meekma (Maggie & Izzy's mom) for providing snack!
