We
expanded the garden program on a limited basis to include Preschool - Kindergarten
at the Loveland Early Childhood Center. We planted four kinds of
pumpkins (Baby Boo, Jack-be-Little, Wee-be-Little and Sugar Baby. We also
planted flower seeds (zinnia, marigold and cosmos) Due to a
number of circumstances, not many pumpkins came up. We did have a
bountiful crop of flowers, though, and the kids had a wonderful experience
planting. They mentioned it many times the next fall when we worked
with them as first graders at the primary school.
