Garden in a Glove

A little while ago, Mrs Rothermel helped Keagan's class make a garden in a glove for science class. They took a plastic glove and put water soaked cotton balls in each finger tip with a different seed in the middle of each. Then they taped it on the window and waited for the seeds to sprout. Once they did, Keagan took her infant garden straight to her Uncle Todd. He was once a farmer ya know! And Keags was smart enough to know her mom would have killed it. 

Todd transferred the seedlings into a pot and every day we have watched them grow. Several weeks ago Keagan picked the radish. And today she harvested the cucumber! It was a little spikey with very white flesh inside and as fresh as I have ever had! We peeled it and Keagan sliced it for dinner! She was so proud of her little cucumber and I was so proud of her! But above all I am thankful for our wonderful little village! How incredibly blessed we are to have great teachers and wonderful uncles!
