BRYAN EATON/Staff Photo. Kalleigh Metcalf, left, and Gabi Peixoto, both 8, check out the small pumkin and other plants at the vegetable garden at Amesbury Elementary School on Monday. Students in Nancy Sullivan's class toured the garden to get a lesson in nature by checking out which vegetables grow on vines and stalks, what colors they are and even got to try really ripe cherry tomatoes.
