A pair of RAD kids with a pair of RAD-ishes. ps. RAD means 'cool' |
On May 17th at HOH, a Gardening Workshop was held to demonstrate the planting of summer vegetables and to help members plant various seedlings. Vegetable seedlings planted included cucumber, tomato, and bell peppers.

Tomato Seedlings root/stem can be planted horizontally to provide better support for plant stem (ie. deeper). |
