WVU Extension agent Mollie Toppe and Lisa Sidenstricker brought hands‑on gardening fun to our PLTW Gateway and Launch classes. Students dug into soil, explored seeds like beet, sunflower, broccoli, kohlrabi, radish, collard, and turnip, and even tasted fresh microgreens. Thank you, Ms. Toppe and Mrs. Sidenstricker, for enriching our students’ learning and sparking curiosity.
