Garden to Table session #2

 Wednesday, 17 March - Soup and Scones


On an autumn morning, homemade soup and scones has just that lovely nostalgic ring to it, invoking the flavours of the season. 
The Seniors at Howick Primary enjoyed the day immersed in hands-on learning. With the help of our volunteers, pumpkin from our school garden was harvested by the garden team and kitchen team sliced and diced and pureed away making super yummy soup for all to enjoy. 

Parsley from our garden provided that X factor to the cheese scones the children mixed, kneaded, shaped and baked to accompany the soup. All enjoyed together at the table - a perfect reward for the awesome effort!

Thanks so very much to our volunteers -  well schooled children and full tummies, thanks to you giving us your precious time!
