Garden Film Project and Consent Form

Dear Barn Swallow Families,

Our class has a very interesting opportunity coming up. Pacific University professor Michael Geraci, is interested in interviewing and video taping the Barn Swallow students as they work in the school garden in the next two weeks. He will be creating a short film that will include some Barn Swallow students. Please take a moment to fill out the form below letting Mr. Geraci know if you consent to having your child be a part of his project. If you have any questions, please email me and I will forward them to Mr. Geraci.

A consent form will be sent home today. Please return this form by Monday, April 30th or earlier.

Thank you families!

Sincerely,

Sherry

What can you plant at B Street Farm in the fall? -2008

FAVA BEANS! As the leaves were changing colors students used rakes and aeratation tools to prepare a fall bed in the garden. The fava beans, as well as their mulch, will help protect the soil from erosion and compaction over the wet winter season. Because it is a legume, it will also provide nitrogen to the soil. Students found many miniature farmers, worms, as they gently burried the large fava seeds. A garter snake even came by to say hello as the students were planting this fall afternoon.
