AUTUMN is harvest (收获) time for the 27 eighth-graders at Heritage Middle School in Painesville, Ohio. They couldn’t wait to pick ripe vegetables from the school garden behind the school’s library. There were tomatoes, beans, peppers and broccoli.The 27 students took part in the school’s garden project. The program teaches about environmental issues (环保事宜) – water, soil and energy – as well as leadership and team-building skills.

“I hope it helped to get the kids outside to start their own garden at home,” said Colleen Royer, coordinator (协调人) of the program.Several gardening experts helped the students build two garden beds and plant some vegetables in May.

For some students, it’s their first taste of the garden’s fresh vegetables. Others have been working through the hot summer months to keep the plants alive.Eighth-grader Christopher DiPierro and his family pulled weeds, watered and even took home some ripe vegetables.His mother, Laura, said her other children also took part and it was a great learning experience for the whole family.

“We went to work one day a week [in the summer],” she said.
“The kids learned how to be patient. Chris paid extra attention and it was really exciting for him. He’s not a tomato fan, but he agreed to try.”

At the end of September, the school made pepperoni (意大利香辣肠) and jalapeno (墨西哥胡椒) pizza with the peppers and tomatoes from the garden. All the students enjoyed the delicious food – the fruits of their labor – together.
