This session gives your children the chance to harvest one of the crops planted last half term, as well as deciding on which garden jobs are needing to be completed this half term, finishing with sowing turnips that will be harvested later on.
There's plenty to do in the garden this session! Children will get a chance to sow some new crops as well as have their first taste of some harvested earlier for a 'farm-to-fork' experience.
In this session, children will work together to harvest the carrots, then use their leaves (and other nature finds) to create some leaf collage cards for someone special.
Play some games with children during this session to help them understand a little more about the creatures we share our gardens with, while also learning about how we can protect our crops from them, while still keeping the creatures safe too!
In this session your children will use their blooms of calendula flowers to create flower jars to take home, as a memory of their time at gardening club this half term.
Celebrate the final session of your gardening club with a harvest feast! In this session, children will harvest their last remaining crops and use these to create summer salads and a delicious desert to taste!
These crop cards are to be used in combination with your Summer 2 after school club gardening pack. They contain everything you need to be able to sow, grow and harvest successfully with your children in your school garden or grounds and are suitable to be used with children across the primary age range.
