Macy began our geyser exploration by rousing the crowd with a cheer!

Using a geyser tube filled with Mentos, Mel showed friends how the porous candy absorbed the fuzzy coke to create a big coke explosion.

A community helper popped into the backyard during our study, so we had a chance to learn what a Meter Reader does.

We gathered back inside to talk more about the Fourth of July. We set out flags with red and blue tape and paper for friends to create art.

Lisa and friends played charades.

This morning, Finn arranged to have the garden looked after while he was away. Here’s the conversation:

Finn: “Caleb, could you do a job for me when I’m at the Island? Could you be the Boss of the Garden?”

Caleb: “For how many days?”

Finn: “Three and a half, I think.”

Ada: “If it’s only three and a half days, I can do it!”

Caleb: “Me too!”

Finn: “Ok. Thanks, guys.”

If you are in town, we’d like to invite you all to assume Finn’s Boss of the Garden job over the next week and a half. The cherry tomatoes are just about ready, and there are lots if peas ready to be picked. Kale, chives and other herbs are also ready to go. ENJOY!

See you Monday, July 15th.
