CHS students in the Garden Club, led by Ryan McGrath, spent the mid-afternoon on Tuesday preparing a field at Marion Carll Farm for planting using rakes and shovels.
 
 The district's third graders soon will use the field to grow mammoth cabbage as part of the Bonnie Plants Cabbage Program.
 
 The younger students will compete with students at other schools to grow the largest cabbage while learning at an early age how to grow healthy food and to value the fun and hard work that goes into gardening.
