Mr. E is a wonderful gentleman who happens to be a Master Gardener, Master beekeeper, science enthusiast, speaker, and educator. We are blessed that he is willing to share his passion with a group of homeschoolers which include my children.
Here are a few pics from past classes..
During one class we learned about composting, vermicompost, drip irrigation, and more

We ... I mean the kids ( o.k. we because I am there too and I learn so much!) also had an astronomy class with Mr. E and it was so cool! I wish I had taken pictures but they did get to look at the sun through a special film which made the sun look kinda like the moon, without the blinding rays and all. It's called a BAADER film if you are interested in one.
Next month we are lucky enough to be having a class all about chickens which I think is awesome because one day I would love to have some. I think the kids will love it also because they keep begging me to let them move to a farm. My oldest says she is " an accidental city girl", waiting to be a "farm/ cowgirl"
It's no mystery, I think we are pretty blessed by Mr.E
We'll be seeing you next time!
