Kempsville Elementary students get their hands dirty
Recently the Kempsville Elementary School (KES) SCA, staff members and volunteers carried out an “extreme makeover” of their school’s courtyard garden. In addition to pulling weeds, trimming bushes, and transplanting several strawberry plants, the students also planted several winter plants including lettuce and cabbage. The students are now looking forward to a delicious salad snack once the crop is ready to harvest. In the spring the students will be planting another round of fruits and vegetables.
