Turns out that wearing my white ballet flats for garden duty was indeed a bad idea. Check out that tan line though. The first day of garden duty brought up a lot of questions to mind. The first and most prominent one was "What the heck am I doing?". This question was then followed by a multitude of questions. I came to realize that our IPRO, though a lot could be done, our IPRO needs a direction--a long term goal if you will. A list perhaps could be made for the things that need to be done to and for the garden.
Watering and weeding is mostly what Hannah and I did for garden duty. We split the watering up between the two of us and weeded some of the beds. There's a lot of potential to be had for the garden but we weren't exactly sure what that potential was. It wouldn't make sense to make executive decisions about the garden without the opinion of the group and instructors. It would have been nice to harvest some more produce to make room for the plants we haven't gotten to plant yet as well as the new plants we're bringing from the Iron St. Garden.
We have a lot of produce. A lot of radishes. They are just bursting from the ground begging to be picked. This picture does no justice to show exactly how much radish has grown. I have a ton more photos from the first day of garden duty which I will upload to my make shift photo gallery when I get the chance.
It was pretty rainy and gloomy that day. But the sun managed to come out while Hannah and I worked. Around 7 pm when I left campus a thick fog rolled in. It was eerie. I felt like I was in one of those zombie movies. Luckily, no zombies showed up.
