ANOTHER URBAN FARM? AND SUMMER (June 10th, 2015)

I have not really shared a lot about my personal life on this blog but now I have a chance. Next year I will be attending the downtown campus for my senior year. On Monday I showed Mrs. Unser this blog and talked to her about what we are doing over here in the courtyard and she was very excited and was wondering if we could start a smaller, indoor urban farm at the downtown campus. It is currently "all up in the air" but I am planning on starting a worm bin in the classroom to promote composting food scraps and well as a positive idea of urban agriculture!

I have decided to take a break from blogging this summer just because I am very busy with other projects and not much will be happening. I hope you all have a great time soaking up the sun!

Neglect of "The Blog" (June 7th, 2015)

Hello everybody! I am so sorry I've been mistreating the blog! School was coming to an end and I was very busy and rushing around trying to finish a lot of work, as well as planing to maintain the farm during the summer months! There have been a few people on my case requesting that I update the blog.

I would like to thank all the adults and students alike for helping to make the garden more useful! 

Mr. Bauer helped us to establish a grape vine, many students helped to decorate or dig up some dirt, and Mrs. Dorschner was always there to guide me! During the summer we will have people who will come in regularly to help water plants and to maintain the farm. I will be there tomorrow morning if anyone is interested in a "tour". Also, we need to find recycled objects that we could use as planter boxes. So far I have and old aluminum trash can and a metal bucket! Thank you all so much for your contributions and effort! I will see you all this summer!
