Planting Giant Carrots

The Little Diggers Program is underway at the garden. At last Saturday's lesson the little diggers planted three giant carrot seeds. They filled three log tubes with soil and planted the seeds in the top. They will keep the plants watered and watch for them to send their leaves out the top. We may even see little doggers dancing around the tubes throughout the summer as Isabella, in the story, The Giant Carrot, did this and her carrot grew to be very big.
