Once students have a deeper understanding and appreciation of the colorful world of fruits and vegetables (lesson here), it is time to learn where these foods come from. Students will discover that all fruits and vegetables start as seeds and grow into plants. They will also feel a sense of pride and accomplishment when they get a chance to grow something themselves.
