CONGRATULATIONS to the second round of Growerās School graduates! During our time in Growers School we learned about soil, plant anatomy, the plant life cycle, pollination, and discovered where our food comes from. Warriors helped start and water our first round of cucumber seeds for the Knockout Pickle Enterprise and even planned their own raised garden bed. The Growers School has continued to evolve and improve with this second round of Warriors and Iām looking forward to putting what we have learned into practice on the farm this season! – Natalie

You have a knack for remembering things by combining words and relating them to things you are familiar with. Congratulations, Patrick!
