Cate's main concern with homeschooling was whether or not I would continue as her Girl Scout leader. With that being said, the co-leader and I decided we would make this the year of mostly field trips. We took our first field trip this week to The Linnaeus Teaching Garden. The girls especially loved sampling the stevia herb. They also learned that the garden center is named after Carl Linneaus-an 18th century Swedish naturalist who developed the system of plant identification. There is a beautiful statue created by Tulsa sculptor Rosalind Cook at the garden center.
