The Super Green Eco Team Meeting on March 6th

The Super Green Eco Team met on the Friday before Earth Week. We had a lot to cover.

Alex's mom, a horticulturalist, came to our meeting to talk about the possibility of a Plant Sale, Roof Garden and what we can do at Earth Week regarding plants. We discussed each of these issues.

• WE CAN GROW PLANTS TO SELL AT THE PLANT SALE

We'll need pots for the plants; Each class can grow plants at Earth Week; The students should water the plants when they dry out; families will come to the Plant Sale;

• WE CAN HAVE A ROOF TOP GARDEN

We can grow plants for school lunch; no chemicals, only organic; what can we grow? carrots?, tomatoes, beans, lettuce, herbs, ivy; all classes should be involved; start growing plants in the classrooms, then move to the roof; students can take plants home over the summer

• WE NEED TO LEARN, THEN TEACH HOW TO TAKE CARE OF PLANTS.

Don't put plants on heater; put plants in the sun; No green house; find a place for plants in the school; ask the science teacher for help; use the pre-k corner window for plants; use worm poop to fertilize plants.



We want to thank, SGET member Miriam for taking the minutes for this meeting.
