Connaught youngsters enjoy community garden
While they may not have the green thumb for gardening quite yet, the Battlefords Family Health Centre (BFHC) Community Garden Project coordinators believe it’s never too early to learn.
Recently, students from Connaught Elementry School in Miss Raelyn Favel kindergarten and Mr. Les Morin’s Grade 1 and two classes took part in the Growing, Sowing and Blooming project celebrating its tenth season in North Battleford.
“The students really enjoy the outdoor education side of being involved with the Community Garden,” Rose Favel BFHC Community Garden coordinator said. “Plus, they enjoy playing in the soil with worms and catching lady bugs too.”
The Community Garden Project has grown significantly in the decade.
