🔬🌱💜 Community Lavender Project with Wisconsin Royalty
We are excited to host Alice in Dairyland at our Lavender Farm in Richland Center next week, along with students from St. Mary School in Richland Center!
The students will be participating in a STEM study focused on a very real challenge for our farm: How can we best protect our lavender plants and help them survive the Wisconsin winter? ❄️🌿
So… what exactly is a STEM study?
STEM stands for:
🔬 S – Science
💻 T – Technology
🛠️ E – Engineering
📐 M – Mathematics
Rather than simply reading about a subject, STEM learning gives students the opportunity to tackle a real-world problem. They ask questions, investigate possibilities, collect information, develop ideas, design solutions and evaluate what might work best.
And in this case, our lavender plants are the project! 🌿
We are excited to hear the students’ fresh ideas and see what solutions they come up with.
Welcome to Alice in Dairyland, the students and Mary Cooper from St. Mary School! We appreciate your interest in our farm and look forward to learning right alongside you.
We Grow. We Make. We Ship. 💜🌿
