Teachers & Homeschool
A note from Herbert Peabody
Dear Everyone,
All of us here at Mulberry Tree Farm hope you are keeping well & safe.
I know there are lots of things going on that are a bit unusual at the moment, so I talked with Ladybug and Worm and Bee. To help make things a little more fun, we have come up with a plan to hang out with you and learn new things!
And, we have created “HERBERT PEABODY SCHOOL!”
We’ve got raps and rhymes, science projects, art projects, putting on plays and planting gardens.
There will be things to do inside. There will be things to do outside. There will be things to do by yourself.
And, there will be things you can do
on your own.
We are here with you all the way!
And we’d love to see pics of what
you’re up to.
Together, let’s LEARN at
HERBERT PEABODY SCHOOL!
Yo, GROW!

"As a parent you’ve gotta love a book your kids want to read AND that is actually teaching them important stuff!!!"

"Being a small-time farmer herself, Bianca C Ross knows about the ins and outs of growing food, just like her vegetable-growing character Herbert Peabody. This book taps into the educate-kids-about-where-food-comes-from drive"
