                                         15      While the plants are growing during the
                                              warm spring days, there is still a lot of work to

                                              do in the garden. Students mix sand, dirt, water,

                                              and cut-up straw to make adobe bricks. The
                                              bricks are used to make the low walls for waffle

                                              beds. In the Southwest, adobe bricks are still

                                              used to build homes.


                                         16      Adobe is also used to coat the horno, the
                                              traditional oven used to bake bread. Every
                                              spring, the horno in the corner of the outdoor

                                              classroom gets a fresh coat of adobe.
