Gardening Activities for Beavers, Cubs & Scouts
|
||
Here is a great Scouting activity that you can do whilst earning a badge during social
|
||
distancing.
|
||
The activity is for
|
||
• Beavers & Cubs: Gardener Activity Badge
|
||
• Scouts: Farmer Activity Badge
|
||
All three are very similar and have been adapted to suit conditions. Remember to always
|
||
follow government guidance on social conditioning.
|
||
There are many videos you can watch on YouTube and some are included. If you have a
|
||
family member or friend who is a Gardner perhaps reach out a FaceTime them to get their
|
||
top tips.
|
||
You will need some small containers, no bigger than bucket size, why not recycle
|
||
something, or a window box
|
||
Some small hand tools but almost anything will do, a dibber could be a old pencil or a twig
|
||
Some small stones are needed for drainage in the bottom of the pots where there are
|
||
drainage holes
|
||
Some soil. This can be from the ground but will need to be sieved to break it up or better still
|
||
some bagged compose [maybe your neighbor has some to spare]
|
||
Lastly some seeds and these are cheap and can be purchased on line from a number of
|
||
merchants
|
||
For example
|
||
www.dtbrownseeds.co.uk
|
||
Some Tips:
|
||
Sow seeds thinly so they have room to grow
|
||
Dont over water, just keep the soil damp
|
||
Space out the seeds as instructions on the packet
|
||
When the seeds germinate thin out the seedlings
|
||
To keep things simple and will grow quickly meaning you should to able to eat them in June
|
||
or July the following are suggested:
|
||
Spring Onions
|
||
Lettuce
|
||
Carrots
|
||
Dwarf Beans
|
||
Garlic (take a clove of a bulb)
