(Still) Going Green




March is a great month for scientists,gardeners, environmentalists, and curious minds alike.  The weather is changing, the birds are back, and plants are growing (or not growing).  Maybe seeing the bushes start to bud has got you thinking ahead to your summer garden.  




Not a gardener?  Well do you like to be green? Do you chant, "Reduce, Reuse, Recycle," every chance you get?  Do you like trying experiments you see online?  If you said "Yes!" to any of those questions, then I have got a cool experiment to share with you!

You can regrow...
