Enriching the planters at the Bercy nursery school, Paris

The team of the Traversine garden takes care now of four culture trays in the playground of the nursery school. 

Before planting fruit, vegetables and other plants with the kindergarten children, we enriched and aerated the soil in the containers. Together with the children, we prepared the planters in layers, using dead leaves mixed with topsoil. The plane tree leaves, collected in the schoolyard in autumn 2021, have started to decompose and are a natural fertilizer that will help us to maintain a light and airy substrate in the bins.

In November, the children will sow the first vegetables!
