“Hope has been an amazing place for my son. He has thrived and greatly improved his testing scores. Probably the most important thing is that he comes home every day from middle school and says he had a great day.”

Vacancy in the Hope Garden Club Bug Hotel!

Students were busy preparing cozy nooks and crannies for our bug friends to spend the winter. Bug hotels not only provide shelter for bugs to hibernate and take shelter, they also provide a creative outlet for making patterns and using organic Read morematerials. Students used blocks as hammers, stuffed leaves into corners and toilet paper rolls, placed cardboard with holes for bees, and used sticks to hold things together. Bug guests will find this establishment to their liking and very affordable!

After working everyone sampled the Huckleberry Gold potatoes they grew, practicing cutting and boiling the water. Taste testers agreed that these were some tasty potatoes with a little salt!

Field trips are one of the best ways to explore your community and learn stuff along the way!

Hope Garden Club took a field trip to the South Seattle College greenhouses and horticultural center to experience large greenhouses and what they grow in them. Michael Lockman, faculty member inRead more Landscape Horticulture at the college, toured our group throughout their outdoor gardens and greenhouses, showing students their succulent area, carnivorous plants, and showed us the various features they use to manage the temperature of each of the greenhouses. Swamp cooler was a fun term to learn!

Students tasted herbs in the tasting garden, and learned about the step-by-step process the college students use to track the planting and growth of their plants.

We had a great time and came away excited for the next growing season! Big thank you to Michael and @southseattlecollege for having us! If you get a chance, check out their plants sales!
