Winter and Looking Forward
After some brief winter hibernation we're back to being busy in our gardens - both at home and at El Rio Community School. Emily had flowers bloom in time for Valentine's Day for their first time (yay!) and Kylie has been busy whipping up gorgeous, delicious food per usual inspired by all that's in season. We love LA winter, when the lupines and milky oats and nettles pop up in their respective pavement cracks and hillsides.
We hosted our first ever February Break Camp in mid-February and had the best time :') We made Mexican marigold-infused ice cream, cared for the chickens, dyed napkins with sourgrass flowers and then stamped them with carved potatoes! The week left our hearts very much filled up. One of our beloved Sun Sprouts (who's always the first to arrive and the last to leave) exclaimed on the last day at pick-up, "HOW MANY DAYS UNTIL SUMMER????!!!!)
Summer IS indeed creeping closer, and we're excited to share registration for Sun Sprouts Farm Camp is now open! We'll be hosting our 6th annual summer day camp in Highland Park in Kylie's lush garden backyard. If you know a kid 5 years or older who loves to play in the mud and eat farm fresh food, send them our way :)
