Each year a local winery purchases dandelions for $5 per gallon. We had fun with this last year so decided to do it again this year. This year we had the entire neighborhood in on the project. It was hilarious...we talked about quality control, punching a time clock, and the story of The Little Red Hen. The kids wanted to buy ice cream with their earnings. We picked 2 gallons of dandelions and earned $10, ice cream cost $30 for this group. Next year perhaps we will add economics into the lesson.
