“Today is a bright, sunny day and ecobears Arc, Marlie, Zana the rabbit & Tilda the hedgehog are busy in the garden. They are collecting ripe pomegranates from one of the fruit trees. Arc has cut all of the fruit in half, in preparation for juicing in the kitchen later. Tilda is telling Marlie how pretty she thinks the patterns look inside the pomegranates. Arc reminds the group that there will be lots more pomegranates to harvest over the next few weeks – so they will need to make sure they have enough recycled glass and plastic bottles at paw.

Meanwhile, ecobear Savreth has gone into town with Berry Scout. They are visiting the local market on the hunt for seedlings. They are hoping to find plants such as broccoli, cauliflower, sprouts and onions – to fill a bear patch in the corner of the vegetable garden.”
