Farm to Cafeteria with George Edwards

To quote a first grader:  "Yum Yum Yum"

Chef George Edwards prepared potato leek pie and pear apple crisp with fresh New York State produce.   In exchange, we gave him some of our BNS farm grown sunchokes and herbs.

Writing thank you notes to Cafeteria staff, Johanna and George

PreK Students Make Some Predictions

As part of their tree study, PreK students were looking at all kinds of tree seeds.  So the teachers put an avocado tree seed in a baggie with a damp towel and asked:

Here are just a few answers:

A ghost and a cloud will come out

A ghost will appear

A person will appear 

An old lady with a feather will show up

A root will appear.

A bumble bee will fly out.

Nothing will change

A birthday party will spring up

If any of those things happen, we will let you know.

Thanks Shirley and Polly and Tish
