Salford Hills is sponsoring three Veggie and Book Swaps this year:
- July 18 at 8:30 AM (Storytime at 8:45)
- August 1 at 8:30 AM (Storytime at 8:45)
- August 15 at 8:30 AM (Storytime at 8:45)
The Salford Hills Veggie and Book Swap is an opportunity for our Salford Hills community to come together as neighbors.
And this year, we add storytelling to the mix. Here a read aloud or two under one of the many trees near our CROPS Garden.
Swap a Book
We meet around the back of the school where the garden is. Mrs. Burro, our Reading Specialist, has a generous selection of books spread across tables and we invite students to either swap a book with one of their own or just take one! There's a little something for everyone; from toddler board books all the way through books parents/guardians would enjoy. So bring the whole family!
Grab Some Veggies
Whether you have some veggies to share from your own garden or would just like to work in an around the garden, we hope you'll grab some veggies before you leave. This is our garden, a great big community garden to share with one another. What we grow in the garden is for everyone and we hope you'll enjoy what you take.
What Happens to the Leftovers?
If there are any leftover vegetables, a kind volunteer takes them to the Keystone Opportunity Center Food Bank in Souderton. In the past we've donated almost 1,000 pounds of produce to Keystone straight from our Salford Hills Garden.
The CROPS Garden: Feeding Ourselves, Feeding Others
There are two purposes to our garden initiative. We want to get vegetables into the hands of folks who may not have a garden of their own and would like to sample the freshness that only a home garden provides. But a second purpose is how the garden project compliments our social responsibility goals that is a large part of what we do at Salford Hills. We share our bounty with others when we can. We feel this is an important teaching point for our students and the CROPS garden serves as a model.
Come
So now that you know a little more about the Swap and what it's all about, why not be a part of the whole experience. We'd love to see you!
