This week, WDS welcomed back GrowTorah into its garden for another incredible semester. Farmer Shimon welcomed the students back to the garden on behalf of Farmer Yisroel, who will begin next week. Students learned about the mitzvah of bal tashchit (not wasting) which students learned about in this past week’s parsha. Students weeded the garden and recycled the weeds into compost; harvested okra, raspberries and peppers; planted new seeds; and tasted some of the herbs and edible weeds.
