This Saturday Lettuce Learn garden coordinators will be at gardens throughout the county helping out. I'm at the Mary Boyer Garden behind EarthFare at the Episcopal church. It's a fantastic little community farm providing food for the less fortunate and giving folks a place to garden. As part of our service we will provide activities for children while mom and dad check out the site. Going to do "leaf rubbings" which are very fun and cool. We'll pick leaves , identify them and work them into masterpieces to dazzle the most ardent of critics. Really,really!!! Hope to see some Valle Crucis families and teachers for this great showcase for the county's farmers. Events go all day. Check out http://farmtour.brwia.org/watauga-farms.html for ticket info and locations.
I'll bring the supplies which'll include crayons, water colors, paper, kid's scissors, glue stick and any other fun thing I can think of. Everyone goes home with some artwork and I'm ready to help y'all. Lots of great leaves to work with and I'll see to it we have a bunch. Did this little experiment with an oak leaf. I want to make a bunch more so let's do it together.
