Junior Landcare Club: Mega Pumpkin Sale provides much-needed funds for local charity
A huge congratulations goes to the Year 5/6 students from the Maddingley Junior Landcare/produce Club. On Friday afternoon, they conducted the Pop-Up farm stall at the Gatehouse for members of the school community to purchase produce from the Club and from the Staughton Vale campus.
There was a range of items on sale, including sweet potato, rhubarb, lettuce and butternut pumpkins.
On the day, the students raised an impressive $250, which will be donated to Neighbour’s Place in Bacchus Marsh, with the residual produce being utilised by Food Technology. From setting up the stall, to completing transactions with customers, the students gave a positive experience to all of the families that visited the stall.
