Today's gardening experience me, my fellow peers and the youth from the community once again took a look at how are wonderful sunflower seeds were doing and thankfully they were still growing, from the looks of things by the end of the month if not before then we should have some pretty sunflower, we also took the time to start a new project and planted okra, squash and collards right next to the sunflowers. Due the hot weather it was decided that that we would call it a day for gardening once we finished our new project. Today the number of kids started out low but the few we did have were very proud and excited about the growth of our sunflowers and even took pictures next to them. Today was a great example and proof of why gardening with the children is such a good idea it not only gives them something to do but also gives them something to look forward to and teaches them somehing they may never learn at home or at school.
