Matt Carroll, left, 12, and his friend Brady Sadowski, 11, both sixth-grade students at Wheeler Middle School, share a laugh as they transport a few buckets of compost up a few stairs, as they assist Sabrina Buehler of North Stonington with her garden on Thursday. Buehler is instructing students the importance of compost , part of an Earth Day event for 55 sixth-grade students from Wheeler Middle School in North Stonington, at her North Stonington home. Other activities included 18-hole disc golf, seeing her pen of chickens, viewing her solar powered home and enjoying home made pizza cooked in an outdoor oven. (Tim Martin/The Day)
