After months of planning, E presented her aquaponics project to the church today. She gave the mission moment, speaking about how she is growing lettuce in a water tank for the Sunday School. If all goes well, she plans to make a salad for fellowship hour sometime this summer.
During the mission moment, E invited the congregants to visit the Sunday School library and see the aquaponics project. About 10 people stopped by and she explained how it works. The kids enjoyed seeing the goldfish in the tank that will produce the, um, fertilizer, for the lettuce.
E started the aquaponics project to complete her "Sow What" journey in Girl Scouts. When she learned that the Sunday School was talking about food sources in the fall, she thought it was the perfect tie-in and the Sunday School director agreed. Now that her journey is done, E can start planning for her Gold Award.
