When Life Gives You Lemons...

When life gives you lemons... make lemonade!


All classes have enjoyed harvesting the bountiful lemons from our citrus orchard -- and squeezing the fragrant juice into pitchers mixed with water and simple syrup to make their own refreshing lemonade drink!

Winter Garden Bounty

Since they returned from the holiday break, kindergarten has been enjoying many winter harvests! That's the joy of the Bay Area weather -- a few frosts didn't harm our citrus, and they only made our broccoli sweeter.


Freshly picked mandarins!



Kindergarten harvests various citrus fruits for a taste test.


Broccoli made not be quite as popular as our juicy citrus, but kinder still enjoy it more than anyone would guess! When they harvest it themselves, they are much more open to trying it! A little ranch or teriyaki sauce for dipping is nice, too. 


Look at our beautiful broccoli plants! 




YUM!
