Whatcom County Farm Tour

We participated in the Whatcom County Farm Tour on Saturday, September 8th.  We were at Bellingham Country Gardens, and we spent the day talking with Farmer Sam, picking strawberries, and meeting families and kids!


We met people who participate in Bellingham school gardens and people who don't have one at their school (yet!), and we hope to keep in touch with everyone!


We tried making some pocket plants with the kids who visited us, and they were a great success.  The activity is quick and simple, and gives a great visual for learning about seed germination.


And a sneak peek at the results after having a pocket plant for 5 days...


Its botany at your fingertips!
