Growing Homework?????

The members of the Dirty Rascals Junior Master Gardener 4-H Club got a surprise when they came to their monthly club meeting. They got a homework assignment. That's right club homework, but this assignment is going to be a lot of fun. The members were presented with two small green houses to start plants in. One was for a vegetable such as sweet peppers, eggplant, cucumber, or tomatoes. The other was for a flower such as zinnias, sun flowers, and marigolds. The members planted their seeds and took them home. They are took take care of them and give updates to their club leaders over the summer since their next club meeting will not be until August.
The members also received their sun flowers from their fair booth to help mark their own gardens at home. The club is already working on ideas for their fair booth. As they put it they are planting the seeds and letting them grow!
