This past Saturday, April 10th, under a cloudy-chance-of-rain kind of day we enjoyed the grill, earth, and eachothers' company.
Peter building a compost bin. Katia's got enthusiasm to plant root crops in our stacked bed. Heather puts on her best farmer face while Chris spreads compost and Jenta does plumbing work to install the drip irrigation. Anna preps the space for the chicken coop.
Booker T's Ariel and DeVonte dig out the old potato tower to make space for the new one!
The University of San Francisco Environmental Studies Capstone course is building the foundation for a long-term project which seeks to revitalize the garden at Booker T Washington Community Center, encourage involvement with the surrounding community in the venture, and educate the children who attend the community center for the after-school program on the benefits of gardening and its elements (composting, animals such as worms and chickens, planting the seeds, etc).
