Stewardship...

Our recent farm visits have provided opportunity to discuss our roles and responsibilities as stewards of the soil, creatures and our food production. Our visit to B-Street gave us a chance to apply that care in a hands-on way. We pulled invasive vines and then carried heaps to offer to the goats. They were so haaaaappppyyyy (say with a neigh). Not wanting to stop, we have agreed to return to B-Street to continue to remove this invasive plant so that the surrounding native fauna will flourish. (say that fast, five times)


Odds and Ends, but no less important…. Thank you Families for contributing snack! We are so grateful for the bounty. I would like to ask that we no longer send drinks. Finding a way to distribute has been tricky. We don't want to use disposable ware, and while we do have glass mugs in the classroom, I'd like to reserve these for Authors Tea due to the required cleaning process.
This time of year families are cooking and sharing yummy treats and seasonal goodies. District policies require all snacks to be purchased. This is for the safety of all. Thank you for your understanding, and feel free to invite me over for pumpkin bread and apple butter after school :) Kidding…
