ST. JOHN THE EVANGELIST CHURCH – HUNTSVILLE: Garden know-how germinates at Conway elementary school

Garden

St. John the Evangelist Church – Huntsville issued the following announcement Oct. 28.

Students at St. Joseph Elementary School in Conway love to learn about plants, flowers and bugs.

Donning a straw hat with artificial flowers and vegetables resting on top, Sue Strack pointed to the sea of kindergarten students eager to ask questions about pests in the garden.

After the lesson, Elizabeth Rappold, 5, told Arkansas Catholic, “I learned that yellow jackets can live under trees,” adding her favorite flower is a rose.

But she was matter-of-fact, “I already know everything about them.”

For the past three years, Strack, a St. Joseph parishioner, has been planting seeds of knowledge in students from kindergarten to third grade, helping them grow to appreciate creation.
