Family Activity

Family Activity: Grow a garden for Autumn pumpkins, carrots, lettuce (look for vegetables that will grow in your climate). Children like to watch things grow. Pick a patch of dirt in your yard. Till the area. You might have to add better soil. Seed. Note: Seeds germinate faster in warm weather. Add a netting over area once seeds sprout if you live in a hot climate. Water. Weed when necessary. To keep small critters from snack'n on your vegetables put chicken wire around garden patch, and over it if you know they are pesky.
