With the raised beds planted and hydroponic house gurgling along we will be taking a break from doting over our growing plants like new mothers in the coming week. As a reprieve from the relentless dirt-pushing and weed-pulling Katie and Jordan will both be leading activities at the summer day camp held at Lakeside Elementary next week. Putting our skills to use, Katie will be leading a drama group while Jordan attempts to get kindergarten through fifth-graders excited about gardening and nutrition.
In addition to a summer day camp, the site will also serve to host the summer feeding program for District 29. The summer feeding program is designed to provide access to a free lunch for children in areas where greater than 50% of the student population qualifies for free or reduced lunch during the school year. We have been involved with the summer feeding program in Kalispell since its start a couple weeks ago and have been excited to see the positive response from their community.
We can't wait to see what this week is going to bring our way.
