| Sunchoke, out of the ground!! |

| Sunchokes, in the ground |
We welcomed
West Seattle and Catharine Blaine Elementary Schools this week to
IslandWood, and had some of their fantastic students join us for STS. We
made kale biscuits with leek on top, kale chips, fresh raw snacks, and
ginger/lemongrass/lemon balm tea...YUM. First, we harvested our
ingredients from the garden which included:
 |
| Parsnips |
- Leeks
- Lacinato or Dinosaur Kale
- Sunchokes (for tasting)
- Parsnips (for tasting)
- Turnips (for tasting)
- Celery (for tasting)
- Carrot (for tasting)
- Lemongrass (tea)
- Rosemary and Parsley (herbs)
 |
| Shake it up! |
In
the kitchen, we prepped all the ingredients to make our biscuits, and
kale chips (see our STS recipe link!). Students helped us out in many
ways. For one, we needed to shake the whipping cream vigorously in a jar
to make our buttermilk, and butter for our biscuits.

Time to set up plates and enjoy the fruits of our
labor! Thank you Chef Chris, Gardener Jen, West Seattle and Catharine Blaine Elementary Students.
