Shalom Farms

Shalom Farms was an amazing experience for all of the Fourthies and Seventh Graders, teachers and chaperones.  The girls learned about a wonderful farm that grows healthy vegetables and makes them available to people  all over metropolitan Richmond.  Twenty-four hours ago most of these girls had no idea how to plant a potato, but now, not only do they know how to do that, but they have been part of a project that is key to our school motto.  "What we keep we lose, and only what we give remains our own."  These girls gave on a beautiful, sunny day in our gorgeous state of Virginia, and they learned a lot and loved every minute of it.

There are more pictures and videos to come!  It's taking a long time for them to load, but I thought you would enjoy these few right away.
