Today at the garden my fellow peers and I went and looked at how our sunflowers were doing since the last time we saw them, fortunately they were doing well however they did need a little watering so we took the time to water them. Sadly today the kids from the community that we usually work with did not show up until the last 10 minutes of us being there, which only allowed them time to take a look at how much the plants had grown from last week.
However, it was today that we learned when working with other programs and groups of people that they tend not to show up at times or at all and you simply have to roll with the punches and improvise despite their attendance. Luckily today there was not much planned, so the children participation was not really needed today nevertheless it would have been better to have them there to participate in the activity we had planned and the watering so that they would feel more a part of the planting and growth of the sunflowers.
