Grace and Dad's project has turned into the perfect germination study. We all have been able to share the experience of watching such a radical transformation from seed to flower. This fall, I plan on teaching the children how to collect seed back from our gardens, and the sunflower should be an exciting addition...if the birds don't beat us to the punch.

Sunflower Survivors
The sunflower project has been going magnificently. The bumblebees seem almost intoxicated with such a giant flower, taking their time to bathe for hours in the nectar before heading home. It's hard to believe these giant beautiful sunflowers came from the piddily excuse for sunflower seeds found in bird seed. I'm thoroughly impressed.
