Garden State Gardeners Book Process Garden State Gardeners Book Process It all started when Mr. Klock won the 2014 NJEA Frederick L. Hipp Foundation for Excellence in Education grant. This grant was for Kresson Elementary School students to start a garden of vegetables and herbs. Ms. Rocco's class makes a book every year. So Mr. Klock and Ms. Rocco decided to combine their projects. Her 5th graders would write a book on the garden. Topics included information on the plants, famous planters, recipes and the process itself. That is how "Garden State Gardeners" was born. In order for the book pages to be similar, Ms. Rocco created a graphic organizer to help in our research. Once the topics were chosen, some started researching and getting drawings of different planters and plants. Others gathered information on various vegetables online and in encyclopedias. Once the research was completed, each student decided whether they wanted to be an author or an illustrator. Authors began to write rough drafts of their text using the organizers. illustrators drew rough drafts of their topic. Once the final drafts were completed, many students drew covers for the book. Mr. Klock and Ms. Rocco will choose the winner. To celebrate our project, NJ Classroom Close Up will be reporting on the project. They will the class on both parts of the project; planting and writing. Additionally, we will have a book signing in June. • We built 9 garden boxes. They came as a kit. • We put the soil that has fertilizer in the boxes. • We built a seed started that had 3 light beds. • We planted the seeds in peapods. • The seeds started to germinate. • We started to record data. • We measured growth, counted leaves, and took other notations. • We decided we where should plant the different seedlings and seeds according to the height, sunlight, and spacing of the plant. • We planted the seeds and seedlings into the boxes. • Each Friday we would observe each and every seed and/ or seedling. To check if they were growing the correct way and if the plants have enough sunlight. Jane Colden Having been described as "first botanist of her sex in her country," Jane Colden was an important and noteworthy early American scientist. Jane was born on March 27th, 1724 in New York City. As the daughter of a physician, she was home educated with an emphasis in science, particularly botany. In her career as a botanist, Jane Colden attracted the attention of respected contemporary botanists, like John Bartram from Philadelphia, Carolus Linnaeus, and Peter Collinson. Her use of the Linnaeus Classification System in America brought Jane to his attention. She was a big fan of Carolus Linnaeus's groundbreaking work so you can imagine how excited Jane was Jane Colden was an amazing woman and should be recognized, because she was a big inspiration to women everywhere. She showed that women can do anything that they set their minds to. Jane's work made an impact on the way botanists do their work today. She wasn't afraid to work in a field that was dominated by men. Many women were inspired by Jane because she wasn't a quitter and continued to do what she loved to do. •. 1' ..I II / Thomas Jefferson had many interesting things going in his life. One of them was learning about plants. Jefferson described botany as, "...the most valuable of the sciences." He considered his vegetable garden at his home, Monticello, as a laboratory for him to experiment with different varieties of fruits, vegetables, and flowers. Thomas Jefferson was born April 13, 1743 in Albemarle County, Virginia. He was passionately interested in nature, especially plants. Once he figured out how many pea seeds would fill up a jar (2,500 for your information). He also evaluated native plants for their usefulness to humanity. He was little when his father died and young Thomas was left the gigantic estate. Later Thomas attended the College of William and Mary in Virginia. There he met his mentor, a law professor by the name of George Wythe. And later in life he became a lawyer. Thomas Jefferson went on to write the Declaration of Independence, serve as Secretary of State under George Washington, and most importantly, he served as the third United States president. Jefferson appreciated good food and especially vegetables both familiar and exotic. He wrote, "Ihave lived temperately eating little animal food and that...as a 'condiment' for vegetables, which constitute my principal diet." Jefferson swapped seeds with local farmers with growing instructions. The English pea is known to have been the former president's favorite vegetable. He and his neighbors even participated in a tradition that whoever harvested the first pea of the season had to host a feast for all of the others. Thomas Jefferson was one of the greatest Americans of his day, and yet cared deeply for the science of botany. He was a pioneer in growing and developing many of the common vegetables we still grow in our gardens even today. You can visit his gardens and home at Monticello to learn about him and his studies. John Bartram John Bartram was born on March 23, 1699 in Darby, Pennsylvania. He was a botanist, horticulturalist, and explorer. He is sometimes known as "the father of American Botany". He had no formal education other than school. He had a large interest for medicine. He started a small farm. Then,he got in touch with European gardeners interested in North American plants, and the farm thrived. When Bartram was 24, he married Mary Maris. He had two children with her, Richard and Isaac. Unfortunately, Mary died in 1727. He married Ann Mendenhall in 1729. He had five boys and four girls with her. His third son, William became a famous botanist like his dad John. He co-owned an 8 acre garden with Ben Franklin in Kingsessing not far from Philadelphia. He also created the first botanic collection in North America. During his travel in the Eastern colonies, he collected plants. Sadly, he died on September 22,1777 at the age of 78. Luther Burbank worked on over two thousand five hundred kinds of plants;in fact, he made more new forms of plant life than any other man. His work was to make plants more useful for humanity. Luther Burbank was born in Lancaster, Massachusetts on March 7, 1849. When he was small his mother and sister noticed that he was fascinated with plants. He was so in love with plants that people would bring them to him at a very young age. Young Luther was interested in science at school, and was very popular with his teachers. When Luther was older, he had a friend whom he spent many days exploring rocks, caves, rivers, fish and birds. Luther Burbank moved to California in 1875 to the city of Santa Rosa. Burbank created hundreds of different varieties of fruit and vegetables, and plants. Some things he created are plums, prunes, pears, peaches, blackberry, raspberry, potato, tomato ornamental flowers and other plants. Some people say that Luther Burbank was a handsome, courteous gentleman, fond of fun, of young people and children, but I think he is an extremely smart man for all the fruits, vegetables and plants he created. Let's Move! "The physical and emotion health of an entire generation and economic health and security of our nation is at stake." - First Lady Michelle Obama February 9, 2010. Get outside and do something! You can jump, swim, and play. Being active is healthy for you. Eating healthy foods is also good for you! The "Let's Move" campaign was started by Michelle Obama encourages young people to become more active and healthy. To accomplish these goals, "Let's Move" teaches kids about the benefits of food and exercise. It also provides parents with helpful information. Mrs. Obama also wants to better school cafeteria food!. In order to be healthy, one should be physical active. "Get Active" encourages children to play for sixty minutes each day. You can spend those 60 minutes playing a sport,dancing or just running around. It might seem hard work but its real good for you! Doctors believe too many young children in America are overweight and are not getting enough physical activity. "Let's Move" recommends eating fewer calories, being more physically active, and making wiser food choices. This program teaches children how to become healthier! In ancient Greece, parsley was used in funeral ceremonies and to make wreaths for graves. Parsley was also placed in the wreaths given to winning athletes. The Greeks believed and thought that the god Hercules had chosen parsley for the garlands he wore. There are two kinds of parsley. There is a curly•leaf and a flat-leaved species. You should try growing your parsley in a rich, moist, well drained soil in full sun or partial shade. Sow the seeds outdoor when soil temperature averages 50 degrees. Parsley seeds germinate very slowly. You can speed the germination up by soaking the seeds in water overnight before planting. They mostly require 6 weeks before the seedlings poke out. Parsley has 0.3 grams of protein. They can provide vitamin K, vitamin C, and vitamin A. You can also use parsley to enhance flavor and make your dish look good! Dill was so important that it was even mentioned in the Bible! Many soldiers in ancient times used dill to heal themselves. Now we know that it is a good source of vitamin A. Maybe that's why soldiers used it. It is native to Russia, Africa and parts of Europe.

This change took place over the course of the eighteenth century, when nature, from being conceived of as a settled state subject to cyclical change, came to be seen as mobile and mutable. The sense of a mobile, mutable nature--the dissertation's central trope--arose from the experience of travel and discovery, which was accompanied from the first by a vigorous process of transplantation. Plants and seeds were carried across oceans, having been dug up on one continent to be replanted often in another. From being static and predictable, plant life therefore became, for scholars and poets alike, dynamic, mutable, and adaptable. I focus on the writings of a small group of men in the Anglo-American world, including John and William Bartram, Peter Collinson, Alexander Garden, John Ellis, and Carl Linnaeus, who were engaged in the work of transporting, planting, writing about, and classifying botanical objects.

  • Biblioqraphy & Natural History
    BIBLIOQRAPHY & NATURAL HISTORY Essays presented at a Conference convened in June 1964 by Thomas R. Buckman Lawrence, Kansas 1966 University of Kansas Libraries University of Kansas Publications Library Series, 27 Copyright 1966 by the University of Kansas Libraries Library of Congress Catalog Card number: 66-64215 Printed in Lawrence, Kansas, U.S.A., by the University of Kansas Printing Service. Introduction The purpose of this group of essays and formal papers is to focus attention on some aspects of bibliography in the service of natural history, and possibly to stimulate further studies which may be of mutual usefulness to biologists and historians of science, and also to librarians and museum curators. Bibli• ography is interpreted rather broadly to include botanical illustration. Further, the intent and style of the contributions reflects the occasion—a meeting of bookmen, scientists and scholars assembled not only to discuss specific examples of the uses of books and manuscripts in the natural sciences, but also to consider some other related matters in a spirit of wit and congeniality. Thus we hope in this volume, as in the conference itself, both to inform and to please. When Edwin Wolf, 2nd, Librarian of the Library Company of Phila• delphia, and then Chairman of the Rare Books Section of the Association of College and Research Libraries, asked me to plan the Section's program for its session in Lawrence, June 25-27, 1964, we agreed immediately on a theme. With few exceptions, we noted, the bibliography of natural history has received little attention in this country, and yet it is indispensable to many biologists and to historians of the natural sciences.

  • John Bartram
    GO TO MASTER HISTORY OF QUAKERISM FRIEND JOHN BARTRAM America’s first systematic plant hunter was John Bartram, born in Darby PA in 1699. His mother died when he was two. His father William Bartram remarried and moved to North Carolina, leaving John in Philadelphia with his grandmother. He would inherit her farm. In 1723 he married Mary Maris and they had two children before she died four years later. In 1728 John bought land on the Schuylkill River at Kingsessing, then about three miles from Philadelphia. You can visit this house as it is a house museum. The garden there is considered to be America’s 1st botanic garden, even though actually it wasn’t. Bartram died in 1777 and this was published by his son William Bartram in 1804: “Mr. Bartram was a man of modest and gentle manners, frank, cheerful, and of great good-nature; a lover of justice, truth, and charity. He was himself an example of filial, conjugal, and parental affection. His humanity, gentleness, and compassion were manifested upon all occasions, and were even extended to the animal creation. He was never known to have been at enmity with any man.” “NARRATIVE HISTORY” AMOUNTS TO FABULATION, THE REAL STUFF BEING MERE CHRONOLOGY “Stack of the Artist of Kouroo” Project John Bartram HDT WHAT?

  • Historic Bartram's Garden
    HISTORIC AMERICAN LANDSCAPES SURVEY JOHN BARTRAM HOUSE AND GARDEN (Bartram’s Garden) HALS No. PA−1 Location: 54th Street and Lindbergh Boulevard, Philadelphia, Independent City, Pennsylvania. Present Owner: City of Philadelphia. Present Occupant: The John Bartram Association. Present Use: Historic botanic garden, public park, and offices of the John Bartram Association. Significance: Bartram’s Garden is the oldest surviving botanic garden in the United States. John Bartram (1699−1777), the well-known early American botanist, explorer, and plant collector founded the garden in September 1728 when he purchased a 102-acre farm in Kingsessing Township, Philadelphia County. John Bartram’s garden began as a personal landscape, but with a lifelong devotion to plants grew to become a systematic collection as he devoted more time to exploration and the discovery of new North American species and examples. Its evolution over time both reflected and fostered Bartram’s vital scientific achievements and important intellectual exchange. Although not the first botanic collection in North America, by the middle of the eighteenth century Bartram’s Garden contained the most varied collection of North American plants in the world, and placed John Bartram at the center of a lucrative business centered on the transatlantic transfer of plants. Following the American Revolution, Bartram’s sons John Bartram, Jr. (1743–1812) and William Bartram (1739–1823), continued the international trade in plants and expanded the family’s botanic garden and nursery business. Following his father’s lead, William became an important naturalist, artist, and author in his own right, and under his influence the garden became an educational center that aided in training a new generation of natural scientists and explorers.

  • The Story of Jane Colden America's First Lady Botanist in the Town of Montgomery During the Eighteenth Century
    The Story of Jane Colden America’s First Lady Botanist In the Town of Montgomery during the eighteenth century Jane Colden 1724-1760 JaneColden031910 Page 1 Cadwallader Colden brought his family here to live in a place he named Coldengham. Today, the name of this place is spelled without the g, simply Coldengham. The year was 1727 and the Colden family members were among the first settlers to arrive here. Dr. Colden was a medical doctor and surveyor for the Province of New York. Very few roads existed in the 1700s so travel was difficult. Coldengham was located close to the Hudson River The Colden family settled in their new home, knowing that there was much work to do. Colonial families, like the Coldens, had to make everything they had, including their house, barns and tools. They would burn peat and wood for warmth in the fireplace. Peat was thick, dead plant material that could be found in swamps. They would cut the peat into bales and then carry them home to be dried for fuel. Jane had eight brothers and sisters so the family was quite large. Her brothers worked outside on the farm while Jane and her sisters worked inside, helping their mother with household chores. Jane’s mother was educated at a university in Europe, like her father, so she was able to teach the children how to read and write as they grew up. There were no schools here in the 1700s so everything that the children learned came from their parents. To her family, Jane was known as Jenny.
