Girl's Gardening Club Learns to Make Money - Jaffrey - New Hampshire Tourism

🌱 The girls gardening club at Foggy Hill Farm in Jaffrey, New Hampshire, allows young girls to learn about growing food, reinforce math and science skills, and earn money through selling their crops at a farmers market.

🌱 The girls in the club bring incredible enthusiasm and are fantastic salespeople.

🌱 The main challenge is ensuring that the crops grow without overwhelming the busy girls in the summer.

🌱 Starting the girls gardening beds early in the fall and spreading the word earlier would have been beneficial.

🌱 The club has planted flowers, beans, and watermelons by hand using a corn starch and water mixture.

🌱 The club can be found on Facebook at Foggy Hill Farm NH.

🌱 It is encouraging to see clubs like the girls gardening club, as it allows kids to make and keep their own money, which can potentially ignite a lifelong passion.
