Year continued to learn about how we can convert our food waste into new soil for growing more food. Today was all about how we feed our chickens scraps and they turn them into eggs and fertilizer. We learnt some amazing chicken facts on a scavenger hunt in the senses garden, mara kai and orchard.
Emily "the oldest chicken was 22 years and the most yolks in one egg were nine"
Charlotte "Chickens eat seeds"
Oliver "They only fly for 30 seconds"
While we were on our hunt we noticed the vegetables in the mara kai were looking AMAZING! It must have been all the compost, worm tea and chicken fertilizeer we put on them a few weeks ago. We picked three beautiful purple kohlrabi and ate them.
Juho "kohlrabi tastes like lettuce"
Elias "It was hard and it tasted like carrot, lettuce and apple"
Nearly all the children said they would eat kohlrabi again.
