Our tomatoes will be planted in a new location with more direct sun and well drained soil. If we get a dry, hot summer we must provide some shade and water more often. I like these kinds of lessons for children. They are process and result oriented and they keep children thinking. Since they are closely connected to nature, they flow easily through the year and web with all the other seasonal subjects.
All vegetables do well in containers.
The advantage here is that you can move the containers according to your need. Any container will serve this purpose. Even a garbage bag filled with soil will do. If you set it in an old basket it will look very attractive. Do not, however, forget a few holes for drainage.
