About the Garden

Typical garden days have included clearing weeds, planting seeds, watering, solo-sits, and recording sketches and observations into personal garden journals.

They have been painting garden labels with art teacher Kelly Snyder, and over the next weeks will be undertaking a science-art collaboration to compile an illustrated garden guide for the school.
