Meet Terry and Darci Craghead of Fertile Ground here in OKC. The Fertile Ground Coop offers compost services, recycling, and much more! No matter where you live, learn how to help your yard and garden be as healthy as possible for your pets and kids while also introducing science and stewardship concepts at home.

Terry and Darci Craghead of the Fertile Ground Co-op tell us about how everybody in the family, even the youngest kids, can help make a big difference by making compost out of food scraps and recycling! Spend some time rolling around like a worm, singing along to the Dirty Dirty Dirt song, and hearing about fun indoor and outdoor activities to do after the show.

The story is all about two kids who are BORED because they've had too many snow days. Their mom comes up with a great idea that they've never done before - a diy scavenger hunt! My guest Tara leads us through some animal inspired yoga poses and tells us all about making crop art. Check out pictures of her cat and favorite basketball player Naz Reid made out of many kinds of seeds on my Instagram feed @the_ready_set_go_show. What kind of pictures can you make out of things that you find in the kitchen or your backyard?
