Here was one of the crafts from our Bean Bonanza. Take a small plastic bag that zips shut, put a wet cotton ball and a bean seed inside. Punch a hole and add a ribbon. Presto! Instant necklace that kids of all ages can wear and watch as the bean sprouts.

Last Thursday and Friday dedicated volunteers spent their evening seeding the 24 planters around the south parking lot at El Centro de la Raza. Check out the new sprouts in a week or so. Signs with info on each variety is coming soon. When they are ripe we encourage to everyone to pick a few and try out the different varieties.
