February 2017 Photo Moment of the Month

Have you ever made a garden on a cracker?

These third grade students from Watsonville's Starlight Elementary School have!

As part of weekly field trips at our Blooming Classroom, children from several Pajaro Valley Unified School District elementary schools are "eating a rainbow" this winter by creating this beautiful edible art. They also learn about how these nutritious, colorful foods help us grow and thrive. Not to mention, the fun they have makes these often new foods taste even better. A "soil" surface of bean dip (that they make from scratch!) topped with a variety of veggies makes for quite a treat!
