The junior pumpkin patch is up! Juniors and Seniors worked together to make the pumpkin vines. We hope to add pumpkin flowers as well!
After cutting open our pumpkins in October we decided to save the seeds. We counted all the seeds with the help of our morning "Reading Buddies" and discovered that our medium sized pumpkin had the most seeds (about 690!). We also discovered that the seeds were all different sizes according to the size of the pumpkin.
Today we decided to try and grow pumpkin plants from our seeds so we planted seeds from each pumpkin and will wait to see if anything happens. Each child will get to bring some seeds home and they can try to grow their own pumpkin!
