Spring 2024 at Central Park East II (CPE2) We are thrilled to be back for another year of our Spring Gardening Program at Central Park East 2 (CPE2)! This week marked the beginning of an exciting journey as our students planted and transplanted seedlings into the school gardens, while learning about soil and plant care, plus the importance of providing the right conditions for growth. Inspired by Permaculture’s first principle “Observe and Interact”, we created Nature Observation Journals for our students, where they'll document every change they notice in our gardens over the next 6 weeks. We look forward to seeing what they find! Spring Fling! We were excited to be part of the school's "Spring Fling", with another year of our plant sale. Alongside a vibrant selection of herbs, flowers and vegetables, we prepared a helpful plant care guide for our customers. Thank you to everyone who came by! Cultivating Sustainable Minds As we reflect on this week's endeavors, we're reminded of the profound impact that hands-on learning and environmental education can have on young minds. Through our partnership with CPE2, we're honored to be a part of shaping the next generation of eco-conscious leaders. We are determined to create a more sustainable future for them!
