CABBAGE PATCH KIDS
Ala Wai School second-graders in St. Patrick's Day harvest
Advertiser Staff
Second-graders in Mrs. Alison Fukuda's class at Ala Wai Elementary School harvested cabbage — really big ones — today in honor of St. Patrick's Day.
As part of their ongoing science lessons, the students maintain a garden throughout the school year and tend to cabbage, lettuce, beets, eggplant and corn.
The student farmers are assisted by teachers and the school's custodians and cafeteria manager.
Sometimes the vegetables become part of their lunches, other times they get to take the fruits of their labor home.
