Last week, Mrs Dimitri, Ms. Sessions, and Officer Legare led a select group of 25 students from Team Baxter through some engaging activities at Roberts Farm. Students completed various end of the season gardening tasks. The first group of students planted garlic into raised beds on the farm. The students separated the garlic heads into cloves and planted it into four raised beds. A second group of students removed tomato cages as well as pulling the plants out of the ground. A third group of students cut and folded cucumber netting. While they were doing this, some of the students found some full grown cucumbers! The last task students worked on was Lasagna Gardening. Roberts Farm has been experimenting with “lasagna gardening” in some of the raised beds in the back corner of the farm. The students layered leaves/straw, soil, garden waste (the old tomato and cucumber plants), and cardboard on top of a layer of soil from the raised beds. After they completed all of these tasks, the entire group went for a hike in the woods and enjoyed a scavenger hunt along the way. Upon their return, they had lunch outside on the picnic tables and played some games. Fresh salsa was made and topped off some delicious nachos made by Ms Sessions and Officer Legare. Fun was had by all!
The OHMS Applied Academics program would like to thank the management and staff at The Square for giving the students in our program a tour and and an informational session about the restaurant business!
