Covenant Christian School fifth-grader Micah Sept takes a bite of a basil leaf from a plant held by his teacher, Valerie Parrott. Basil is one of many herbs, flowers and veggies students are growing for the school’s flat sale this spring.
Some of the plant starts being cultivated for the Covenant Christian School flat sale this spring. The plants are grown in a dim room with grow lights set up to turn on and off with timers.

MOSES LAKE — Many gardeners in the Basin have already started nursing their seedlings in preparation for the day they can put them in the ground. Others can place their orders this month for ready-to-go plants from Covenant Christian School’s first plant sale. Orders will open in mid-March, and be delivered in April and May.
