I have taken a few weeks off. I have been waiting until I can figure out my water problem. I haven't been able to find a spot to create a rain barrel. I thought I had an area but our building and grounds director said no because the area was right next to a main entrance and exit for our playground. Bummer. :( I put the garden on the back burner for awhile. I am OK at failing at a project, but I just can't see myself having the kids do all of this hard work and be disappointed with having the plants shrivel up and die.
The other night, my principal called me to say that she had contact with someone from the Wood County Health Department who is working with an obesity grant in our area. I contacted the person and she is helping me out by providing funding for materials, and....WATER! Our school is right next to a fire department and we are hoping to find a way to tap off of their water supply so we can pay for it. I have a call in to our water and light company and they trying to see what we can do!
The next trick, I need to get all the supplies so we can get everything put together and planted by Memorial day weekend!!
Pictures should hopefully be coming soon!
