What's Up Doc?

The gardens look really good in spite of the heat and drought. The young gardeners and the adult volunteers have been taking good care of them.

Ms. Kirsten taught the class how to identify pest damage.  She brought in several plants with different types of disease and pest damage, and showed the young gardeners what to look for.  Ms Kirsten also brought two bags of ladybugs for the young gardeners to release into their gardens.  The ladybugs flew and crawled all over everyone and the plants!

The zinnias we planted are really pretty and colorful.
