Released in 1994, retired in 2006. Associated with Addy Saves the Day.
When summer came, the Walker family raised vegetables to earn extra money so Poppa could go south to look for Sam and Esther. Addy used a hoe to keep the garden rows neat and tidy, and a watering can to sprinkle the seedlings as they grew. At harvest time, Addy would heap her basket high and imagine that each ripe vegetable brought her family one step closer together. There’s a bumper crop for Addy to take to market—a bright green cabbage and two plump eggplants, a red tomato, a turnip, and a whole bunch of carrots!
This is an ABSOLUTE MUST for any collector! Mainly because most of the stories have had something to do with a Garden. (Molly's Victory Garden, Kit's Garden with her Aunt etc etc)
I LOVE this set! You have to glue the top part of the hoe on to the stick (it sort of screws in then you glue it)
The watering can RUSTS VERY EASILY! I was showing my kiddo that it really does work and put water in it and didn't get every single drop dry and a day later there are a couple rust stains inside. GRRR. So note of caution, DO NOT PUT WATER IN IT unless you plan on making sure it is completely dry each time!
Grade: A+!!!
