| The gardening isn't done until it's on the table! Here you can see the Indian Corn that we harvested from the school garden. |
| Last month, students got the chance to grind corn the way Native Americans did centuries ago - using a stone or wooden mortar. Today we ground corn with a hand-cranked grain mill. |
|
| Grinding the corn was hard work! |
| These girls are carefully measuring the ingredients to make cornbread. |
|
| These children were overheard discussing what color the baked cornbread would become. "If yellow corn makes yellow cornbread, will the blue corn make the cornbread blue?" |
| The cornbread was delicious, especially since we grew the corn from seed in our own garden. |
