Plant to Plate

This week, the nature play space was all about the harvesting from plant to plate. Earlier in the year, the Foundation students came on an adventure down to the garden space to plant their herb gardens. We decided to use herbs that are usually found in a pizza sauce, therefore labeling it our 'pizza herb garden'.

Today, we harvested the plants and collected some herbs from the garden, chopped them up, and sprinkled the freshly grown herbs onto our pizza. We had a very excited group of Foundation students, layering their favourite toppings onto their pizza before gobbling them up for lunch. It was a great learning journey, following the plants from a seedling to a plant, and then to a plate. Do you have herbs in your garden that you use for cooking?
