Harvest Celebration, Oct. 2, 2011
 

Garden to Grill: Chef Brian Molino (shown in second row, 4th photo and last photo) created a festive outdoor kitchen and then cooked for the crowd. Students harvested garden vegetables and delivered them to the outdoor kitchen prep. area. It doesn’t get any fresher or more local that that! Samples of delicious potatoes, peppers, eggplants and lots more were offered throughout the event.

Garden Clean Up: Webelos Scout Dens 1 and 4, along with garden volunteers and other participants, did an outstanding job of cleaning up the garden beds. THANK YOU!

Crafts: Crafts inspired by nature utilizing recycled and found materials were a big hit.

Face painting: Four “tattoo artists” had their work cut out for them as they added to the overall beauty of an already gorgeous day.

Apple Taste Test: Almost too close to call, Macintosh eeks out a win over Gala. Both apple varieties were donated by Indian Ladder Farms.

Potato harvest: Students dug deep in the rich soil to uncover blue, yellow and white varieties. Not one potato was left in the bed.

Raffle Winners: Harvest Basket - Emma Kelly, Biscotti Bowl - Abby Beauregard, Pumpkin - Jack Keith

Food Drive: Many bags of groceries were collected and $80 was raised during the Harvest Celebration. All of it was delivered to the Northeast Regional Food Bank to help our farmer friends in Schoharie County. Great job everyone!
