We Appreciate You!

Bravo Carson Elementary in Newark, Ohio! We are so impressed with your indoor Luffa growing success! You grew some of the biggest Luffa starts we've seen this year - almost 20 inches tall!

Every year our Power of Plants Program spends time with 2nd & 3rd graders in the spring, guiding them on indoor planting of Luffa seeds. The students then learn & share the important responsibilities of regular watering and good light (under provided full spectrum growing lights) in their classrooms.

In May, we teach about transplanting the young plants into on-site school gardens for a healthy summer growing season.

Congratulations on the magnificent Luffa starts!
