That’s how their garden grows
Despite chilly conditions and the threat of rain, nearly 90 people came to Los Cerritos Elementary School in Long Beach on Saturday, March 3 to ready the school garden for spring!
Motivated parents and youngsters worked together throughout the morning to spread compost, repair garden beds, clear debris and begin planting in preparation for garden classes, which resume the week of March 12.
It was truly inspiring to see the community come together! Friendships were made over coffee breaks; the kids and grown-ups alike got a great workout; and one lucky family even won a pair of Disneyland tickets. (Congratulations to the Fiels.)
