We found lots of spotted and striped cucumber beetles in the garden today. We also saw ladybugs and pollinator bees. The gardens look really good, considering the hot, dry weather we've had. Here is some of the produce we harvested today.

Today's lesson was about Cold Hardiness Zones. Mr. Lala Kumar, horticulture specialist, was our guest speaker. Mr. Kumar has lived and worked all over the world. He taught the young gardeners about zones, and what types of plants grow in the different climates.
After the lesson we made bird houses out of gourds. Here is Marina painting her bird house.
