Yes, it's just what it sounds like: a 3rd Grade CabbageProgram*. Deadline: September 16, 2013.
Each year, BonniePlants distributes free cabbage plants to
3rd-graders across the country to foster an interest in gardening and the
environment. Cabbages will be delivered to students whose teachers have signed
up to participate. Students will each receive their own cabbage to plant, care
for, and harvest. .
As part of the program, Bonnie Plants will also give a
$1,000 award to 1 student in each state. All info here.
* From the Bonnie Website: Why a cabbage? It was the first
plant sold by our company in 1918. The cabbages are the O.S. Cross variety,
which is known for producing giant, oversized heads, making the process even
more exciting for kids. Some kids have grown cabbages weighing more than 50
pounds!
