Fruit or Veggie
It was hot and dry in the gardens this morning. We weeded, watered and looked for bugs. Today's harvest included zucchini, onions and bell pepper.
The lesson today was "Fruit or Veggie". The students learned that true fruits have seeds. Many of the foods we call vegetables are really fruit - tomatoes, cucumbers and peppers are botanically fruit.
