The Franklin Garden Club added a new feature to this year’s ticket table at the Franklin Farmers Market. The Kid’s Corner offered young people the opportunity to get their hands dirty and learn about gardening with a display of different types of soil and mulch. Local products such as Enviro Energy grass pellets and biochar were included in the display. Each participant started their own garden by planting seeds in handmade newspaper biodegradable pots. Some of the kids also learned how to make the pots.
