Plant a Smile at Pelion Outdoor Classroom!
It may not feel like summer anymore but it's not too late to fix your s'mores quota
We have an interior and exterior bulletin board. Send us your flyers for inviting families and students to engage with Nature or service opportunities. Reminder: your DASH's receipts can be redeemed for $$ and we can purchase garden gear! Homeroom teachers collect them OR put them in an envelope and drop them in the Pelion pigeonhole.
Does anyone remember the PESTO FESTIVAL that used to happen down near Portland, NY? Maybe it only happened twice. I would LOVE if folks could help me figure out how to make that a Pelion Outdoor Classroom at City Honors School signature fundraising event. Pretty Please--I do not/cannot do it by myself. I NEED A CHAMPION FOR PELION PESTO!!

We trimmed down several CMW stalks and removed the pods to test if they will rebloom or sprout tender leaves. We will rubberband the remaining pods to harvest them later. There are a lot of videos showing recipes for eating the pods. Consider who REALLY needs that food source. Monarch populations are declining in 3 countries due to habitat/plant loss; much better to pack a granola bar for yourself.
