The ALC and SPIN students were in the garden again this morning! The ALC students mentored the SPIN students on our favorite… garden pests! Having an organic garden has its struggles, and pests are one of them. They students learned about Potato Bugs, the abundant Japanese Beetles this year, and a few vegetable and potato fun facts.
The students collected Japanese Beetles, crickets and other small bugs off of the plants. They then picked, weighed and donated produce from the garden to Valley Outreach food shelf.
We had some Gecko’s visit the company for the day, so all of the students were able to see and enjoy the Gecko’s!
