Students Enjoy Fruits of Their Labours

Students Enjoy Fruits of Their Labours

Peregian Beach Community College set up their permaculture vegetable garden earlier this year sponsored by Slow Food Noosa.  The students have delighted in eating food from the garden each week especially the snow peas, lettuce, strawberries, pineapple sage, and love to make a salad mix prepared during each of the classes for the students to eat with lunch.

For the last month the students have patiently waited for the larger vegetables to ripen, Caitlin Savic holds this mouth-watering broccoli that is about to be picked.

The students, under the guidance of their permaculture teacher Leonie Shanahan also picked cabbage weighing 3.8kg and a prefect white cauliflower 1.5kgs.
The produce is either cooked or taken home to share.
