It’s science fair time for Front Range’s 4th graders. Ryan’s, um, I mean, Hannah’s project is about hydroponics. They lucked out and found a store owner who is being a terrific resource in getting them up and running. He’s very enthusiastic and encouraging for Hannah. Later this week, he is going to help them transplant the seedlings they started last week to the hydroponic pots and get the system set up to circulate the water and the nutrients.

I’m so glad Ryan is doing it with her. My eyes glaze over in boredom and disinterest when it comes to science. I do love to check in on the plants growing in our dining room and the promise of homegrown tomatoes and veggies without having to pull weeds.
