Students of the Center of Traditional Culture Pusol School Museum begin the growing season in their organic garden

As every year at the beginning of the course, the students of the College of Pusol begin, in the School Garden, the preparatory works for the planting of the different traditional products that are produced in the Campo de Elche and that will be under his care and observation under the direction of his teachers and monitors.


The students of the first and second cycle of Primary of the College of Pusol have begun to combine the usual classes with the activities of this Center of Traditional Culture, which seeks to safeguard the most ingrained customs of the Elche Field. One of the most well-known activities for the visitor is to contemplate the crops that the different teams perform in the ecological school garden, work that they have been carrying out in the Educational Project since its inception and that today has become a traditional event of the school.


 


Accompanied by their teachers and the museum monitors, and after a brief explanation, the students themselves undertake the function of planting the seedlings and the cultivation ground of the museum, planting that follows the rhythm of the lunar cycles.


Schoolchildren take care of the basic daily care of both the garden and the garden, full of native species. Throughout the year they note in the observation forms the incidences that they observe in the growth and development of the plants, therefore, they learn the entire vegetative process.


The harvesting process and its distribution among the students is a festive and satisfying act.
They have been growing products typical of the region, such as artichokes, corn, beans, beans, aubergines, quince, etc. This year has been of great importance the planting that students have done, in seedlings, nurseries Pinus Pinea -Piñonero pine-, whose seeds, the pine nuts, have been collected in the school yard from the planted pines, more than forty years ago, by another generation of students. They are scheduled to be replanted at the location indicated by the forestry authorities, by the students themselves.

This type of environmental and cultural actions teach the new generations how valuable and fundamental is the care of the natural environment in the day to day, in addition to being formed in the traditions that, thanks to these activities, Center of Traditional Culture protects for more than fifty years.
