Fall Planting Day Photos

On Friday, September 19, JSU students alongside Blackburn Middle School students planted in the JSU/Blackburn Learning garden. They worked hard to clear out the beds, lay new soil, and plant collard greens. This is in preparation for the annual Greens Cook-Off in December. Students enjoyed learning about gardening and working alongside their peers to plant. We have over 75 students volunteer for Fall Planting Day.

The Annual Greens Cook-Off is set for Friday, December 12 at Noon at Blackburn Middle School. If you are interested in cooking a pot a greens with middle school student or being a judge, please contact Heather Denne’ at 601-979-5828 or by email at heather.a.denne@jsums.edu.
