Recently, the Lincoln County 4H came to 1st grade to install a Hydroponic Garden. Plants such as lettuce, basil, cilantro, and chives, just to name a few, are growing. Each week this mobile garden will be moved to a different 1st grade classroom for students to enjoy and watch the plants grow. Near Thanksgiving, the students will harvest the plants.

At our first GEMS meeting, the girls learned about how all life on Earth depends on water. We brainstormed all the ways we use water in a day, created water cycle bags, and discovered how many drops would fit on a penny! Water is wonderful!
