A Pizza Party: a glance at 2014 activities!

Kids love pizza. I think it just comes naturally to them. You want to know what I think is great about pizza? You can put anything on it! I am so excited about planning upcoming activities for next year for the kids of Appanoose County's What's Growing On Club. At the end of our warm growing season here in Iowa next year we will be having a Pizza party! This will not be any ordinary Pizza party, however. We are going to use the great outdoors combined with our crops that we have grown throughout the season to top off the end of the warm season celebration!

I have lots of exciting activities planned for the kids and one activity I would like the kids to participate in is the Growums gardening. Growums offers products for kids that teaches them to plant and care for their plants. They have a variety of kits, including the Pizza kit that the kids and myself will be growing next year. Another great bonus is that there is an interactive site online which allows the kids to see the progress of their very own garden. The official dates and plans will be added to our calendar at a later time along with a sign up for the Pizza activity.

Would you like to donate to this project? Please leave a comment below and I will be in contact. Your donations are very important to the local children in the community. Each Growum kit is $9.99 per child. With your help, less fortunate children that may not otherwise be able to afford participating can get involved with growing their own food and learning a healthy, sustainable life.
