Planting project for Kids
The purpose of the activity is to provide
kids, and their parents as well, the op-
portunity to plant their own edible plants
(vegetables and herbs) to take home with
them. Log House Plants supplies the plant-
ers, plants and soil, and the kids plant what
they choose. We offer information on what
they plant and caring for their little garden.
The kids love getting their hands dirty, and
knowing that they are able to eat what they
grow. Its really great to see kids, and adults
having fun, and they seem to love it!
