Garden Cleanup

For the Garden Cleanup, the main project that I worked on was cleaning out and reorganizing the shed.  The whole process took about two and a half hours to fully complete with the help of my three other classmates, Nathan, Chase, and Ben.  At the beginning of the cleaning, the shed was in massive disarray.  Wood and buns everywhere, sand and soil scattered across the floor and massive bags of already opened soil and sand bags.  So what we did first was remove everything from the shed.  The only part that wasn’t removed was a bunch of scrap wood that was already in a good position.  After everything was cleared out and the floor was clean, we continued by putting everything in a nice place.  When we had finished we noticed that the wheelbarrows had many things in it that shouldn’t be there so the next visit, we reorganized so parts and put the wheelbarrows in the proper place.

garden clean up


I worked today on a services project for Mr. Bursch for biology i worked out on the garden  and cleaned the wood chips, pick up the trash. Feed the chickens. Also this helps the  garden be clean and it help the environment and it helps the campus look better. Also i learned that the chickens don't need a male for them to lay eggs.

For my ESLP I did the garden cleanup. Most of the time I was shoveling mulch into wheelbarrows and buckets. However, for the last 30 or so minutes, I took buckets of mulch back and forth from the chicken coop. I helped to make the garden cleaner and nicer, and I also brought a good attitude to the work site. I contributed 100% of my effort to making the garden a more inviting and better looking place. I spent two hours working on garden cleanup and am proud of my work.

garden clean up


          On October 12 I was helping clean up the garden. What i did was i watered the plants and i helped my friends move the mulch from the parking lot to the specific place. We also made the garden look really nice. we wet the tanbark so it could change colors and make the garden look nice.

For the garden clean up I was in the parking lot cleaning up all the mulch on the ground and I was helping put all of the mulch in the buckets and delivering them. Everybody else was helping in many other ways either watering the mulch with the hose or transporting all of the mulch with the wheel barrow.

for my ESLP i helped clean up after school for 2 hours on october 12 moving mulch pile where its supposed to be watered plants and cleaned up.

Garden Cleanup

For my project I did garden cleanup. I learned a lot from this experience of doing garden cleanup. I mulched for 2 hours. Doing garden cleanup is harder then people think. It takes a lot of time and effort. We (me and the people who were helping when I was there) put mulch down all over the garden from the start to past thi chicken coops. For mulching you first have to scoop tan bark in a bucket and fill the bucket with tan bark. Then you pore the bucket of mulch on where it needs to be pored and refill the bucket. You have to evenly spread the mulch to. I also cleaned the back of the shed where there was a lot of dirt and trash left there. This was a good experience in the end because you get to learn how to work with a garden so if you ever have one in the future you will know what to do

Garden Clean by Elias Gracia


Garden Clean up 

For my ELSP project i choose to do the garden clean up because it seen fun and easy. I workd for 3 days in the garden. On the first day, i choose to water the plants in the garden. I was pretty proficient on watering the plants in the garden, especially the plants from the “story of the seed” project. Mid-way of watering the plants, I was told to water the compost and the mulch because there old and somewhat dry. When I was done with that, I just when inside the chicken coop and played with the chicken. On that day, My contribution to the garden was to sustainthe plants from de-hidrasion and making more compost for the garden so the plants could have fertilizer and so they can grow better.
On the second day of doing the garden clean up, I did the same thing, water the plants and water the compost,but in the third day, there was so many people that post- poned there projects, but I still worked on the garden. For the first 30-ish minutesi was watering the plants, then I gave that priority to someone that needed to to something and that moved me to compost Duty. There wasn’t enough material because they used them up the 2 days before so I just watered it some more and wanted te mulch. When I was done watering the mulch, I moved it around so it could full up the space to the limit. After doing that I help out yordi with moving the mulch inside the chicken coop.

Garden clean up

So for my project I decided to do the garden clean up. I chose to do this because it’ll benefit me and the garden. This project will benefit me and the garden because I learn how to do gardening jobs and it’ll benefit the garden because I will be cleaning up any garbage that anyone leaves behind or that people don’t see. So basically what I did was clean up the garden which was better than I thought. First I shoveled some tan bark into containers then after that other fellow students helped and for a barrel and we loaded them up with tan bark. After that we brought the barrels and then dumped them by the piles behind the shed. After that we shoveled the tan bark so it was nicely organized and not all messy. Thirdly I decided to help a fellow student and help them water the trees and plants so they grow and that they are healthy. Fourthly a student named Edwin shoveled up some tan bark and handed it to me in a mini bucket and then I dumped it in the chicken coop. Lastly all of the students including me helped put all the tools back in the shed and just maked sure that everything was nicely organized.

Here are some pictures that I took of the garden








Garden clean up

   Hello my name is David Sanchez and in this project we managed to clean up a whole bunch of dirt during our two hours this dirt was moved to a different location where it didn’t take up as much space. Then we used the left over dirt to fill in new holes that the chickens had made all this was a bunch of fun because we all worked together as a team. What we did may not seem like a big deal but I think it did help in the end everyone who helped in the garden clean up or something different helped improve the garden. Here are some pictures on what we did to get rid of the dirt.

Shed Clean-Up ESLP

Shed Clean-up ESLP Fall



For the Fall ESLP project, assigned by Mr. Bursh, my group decided to clean-up the garden. My group consisted of Chase Lyles, Nate Ferrari, William Mahnke, and me. We also decided that we would be cleaning and organizing the garden shed in particular. The team chose this because we knew that throughout the entirety of the school year, the shed would be used variously to store garden materials. Also that in the rest of the garden projects we attempt, a clean shed would help tremendously. Personally, I do have good experience in cleaning out small and cramped areas, especially ones that deal with tools and plant storage. For example in fourth grade, my class worked in the garden almost every week and my helping job was to keep the shed clean and safe. This project took about one week to finish, the days we cleaned-up were the 27th and 29th of September. The first day we worked for about 2 hours and the second for 30 minutes. All in all this project was super fun and was very satisfying when the job was completer and the shed looked spotless(not exactly).

The first 30 minutes of the cleanup process was probably the hardest because the shed was a complete
mess and we had to take everything out first. So the group cleared out the entire area of the shed and started to map out where each and every material went. We decided that the planks of wood would stay where they were(On the side of the left wall) and just put them more neatly. Next, I placed the tools, like the shovels and brooms, on the right wall where they were nicely stacked next to each other. After that, the we placed all of the pots on top of each other in the front because they are probably the most used garden materials. Finally, we finished off the day by just throwing all of the unused items on top of everything and thinking that was fine(It was not fine at all).  Then we left and knew that we had made a huge impact on what it was before we came to help.

The next day we made a few touches to the shed and went to show Mr. Bursh our final product. He said that there needed to be a few major changes: Firstly, the soil and sand that we had just thrown on the floor needed to be moved to the back because it is not used and unwanted. So we made that change, and were told that the wheel barrows need to be at the front and tilted up because they were used a lot. Following that, Mr. Bursch told us a few minor problems that we fixed instantly and a few little movements that needed to be made. In conclusion, this project was a great thing to accomplish and I am looking forward to doing many more of these over the course of the school year.

Garden Clean Up

      My task was to help clean up the garden. Me and a few other people were assigned to move mulch and spread it across certain parts of the garden to help out plants. What I did in the garden was shoveling mulch and spreading it around boxes. At one point we were so efficient we could fill a wheel barrel up in two minutes and have the next one come as the other is finished. The plants benefit from the mulch by absorbing nutrients the mulch has to offer, helping them grow. The Team was 6 people ( Me and another shoveling, 4 using the wheel barrels and spreading mulch). we were an effective team for the mulch and plant

Antonioś Garden Cleanup Experience

Hi my name is Antonio Arcoraci. I go to Willow Glen high school.Yesterday did the service project in Mr. Bursch  class for 2 hours. yesterday me and some help of the other kids did the old mulch what we did was load 2 wheelbarrow of the mulch and take it to the compost place. We did so much we made a lot of space by the teacher parking lot when we were done with. The old mulch we got started on the wood chips we load the in a bucket and take them to the garden and spread them out into the garden.When we were done with the wood chips we cleaned up the wood chips and me made a smaller pile.The pile decreased so much you can fit two more parking spots in the teacher parking lot. When we were done cleaning up we put the the garden tools back in the shed then we all returned to the classroom to give Mr. Bursch our e-mails or to get our backpacks. In conclusion we all did our 2 hours including me and ¨The garden looks the best shape it has ever been in¨ said Mr. Bursch.




Garden Cleanup Report: Ana Montero

       Hi, my name is Anastazia Montero. I am in 6th period Biology and this is my Garden Cleanup Report. I decided to do garden cleanup as my after school work as I was not feeling very creative and was pressed for time. I decided to work one hour intervals over two days.
       Day one of the project I worked with a team to sort out wood scraps from behind the shed and clean out the side of the shed. At first work was slow, nobody could figure out how to get one of the large pieces and we were very unproductive, then it sped up once we pulled out some smaller parts. The wood was bulky and heavy, taking two to four people to pull it out and transport it out from behind the shed. After it was all out we split into two groups, one to clean out the side of the shed and one to sort the wood. I worked a little bit on each team, sorting for the first half and cleaning for the other. At the end we had sorted out the wood and took the unusable pieces to be thrown away, as well as the garbage from behind the shed.
       Day two I helped spread out dry mulch around the garden. The work was messy, getting in my eyes and all over my face, but I pulled through just like the rest of the group. I transported the mulch in a small black bucket and walked back and forth around the fence, carrying the bucket. After the hour, we as a team filled out the garden with mulch and completed the intensive job.


       

Danil's report (garden cleanup)


My name is Danil Iermakov, I have 6th period biology with Mr Burch. For ESLP I decided to work on mulch and we moved it to a different place. I worked a 2 hours and 30 minutes for two days. With the brown mulch we moved it to the compost pill. The bigger mulch we moved it to bottom path ways. On are second day we mostly worked on the brown mulch. We  mostly used a wheelbarrows to move mulch around.  These work would help a places in the garden, like the compost, the chicken coup, and the garden. We had a lot of fun it teaches us the fondle mantle duty's to are Earth. To clean and make the world a better place for everyone. 


Garden Cleanup Period 6

Hello my name is Valentin Serrano and I'm in Mr.Bursch's 6th period biology class. On Thursday October 12 I did Garden Cleanup for two hours. On this day I helped moved the mulch to the garden area so it could protect the dirt. I also helped even it out so it wouldn't look to over done. I did this for two hours and at the end I helped clean up.

David's Report on 2 hours of Garden Cleanup

My name is David Navarro, I'm in 4th period biology, and this is my report on Garden Cleanup for 2 hours. Initially, I decided I would do an hour one day, the second the next. On both days, I was helping a large group to transfer mulch from just outside the garden to various places it was needed. For my first hour, e moved a dark, moist mulch to different planter boxes, for future gardening. We would be coming back here later in the school year, as would other groups, for planting various seedlings. That took about the full hour, so I took my leave once the job had been done.

The next day, for my final hour, my group was assigned to continue moving the mulch. This time, we would be moving the dark mulch into compost bins, for obvious reasons. We were also tasked this time with moving a drier, lighter mulch in and around the chicken pens for them to have cleaner grounds. By the time my hour was up, the mulch piles were practically a quarter the size they were when we started, so I left my fellow groupmates with the little work that was left, and I headed home. I ended up picking this Service Project last minute, so there wasn't many options, but I can't say I didn't enjoy the end result. Overall, I think we really cleaned up the garden, along with everyone else who signed up for the job.

Garden Clean Up Subhan K.

For my ESLP project I did garden clean up. I chose garden clean up because I wanted to clean the garden and make it neat. I did it for 3 days October 10-12 for 4 hours. I collected mulch for those 3 days. I collected all the mulch with a shovel and put it in the wheelbarrows. Someone goes with the wheelbarrows and drops it off near the chicken coup. Other people and I collected all the mulch and put it in the wheelbarrow. This benefited the garden because it is easier to for the chickens to walk around and it looks more neat. The mulch now looks smaller then before.

Garden Clean Up

        I did the garden clean up for my service project. My first day I spent watering the dirt for the Story of the Seed project.
      The second day I picked up trash and pulled weeds from the student parking lot.
       My last day I went with a group of people and cleaned up the cracked between the wall and the shed. Once we cleared the crack out we separate  the good wood from the bad. Then we took all the bad wood and threw it away.
Garden Clean Up
I did the garden clean up for my project. I choose to do the clean up because I like to see things nice and organized. For one day I did a total of 2 hours of work. While cleaning up the garden I mostly moved the bark to the chicken coop and  spread it all around. I also moved the dirt from the street to the piles they belong to. While I was putting them where they belong they where being watered . I would like to help with the garden clean up agin try to do more than I did for my first time.

Garden cleanup
For my ESLP project I decided to work in the garden and clean it up.  I was assigned to the compost pile. There were a few steps to the compost pile. The firsy layer was weeds and some sticks, the next  layer was mulch and dirt, next we evenly put another layer on dirt on top then sprayed it all with water. The water was to make the whole thing nice and dense. We did this process until we were out of weeds. The main use of a compost pile is to breakdown bacteria over time, and the water helped with it.We did this for a total of 2 hours over 2 days . Some materials we used for this was a hose, a shovel, and a pitchfork

Garden clean up by Edwin Angeles

In the garden clean up I put 2 hours of work after school on the 12th of October and what I did was prayer the plants for around 10 to 15 minuets and then after that we were instructed to put mulch on 2 of the open areas near the chicken hens we did that for the Remainder of the time and we also had to put the light multich in near areas of the chicken hen and for some of the time we feed the chicken for some of the time like Aron 5 minuets and we mostly got half of the multih done from the start and the end was close or almost gone

Garden Clean Up

Garden Clean Up

For my ELSP project I chose the garden clean up. I worked with a few of my classmates during my 2 hour long project. We first started by watering the plants, we planted for our germination seed lab and watered the trees and maybe did that for at least 15 mins. This benefited the garden by helping the plants and trees stay hydrated and healthy. Then we began doing compost with tools and I got to use a shovel. This took around 1 hour and it benefited the garden by separating the raw material into 2 other spaces so that the middle space is saved for other things. Then for the final 45 mins of my project I collected mulch that was in the parking lot and spread it out in the chicken runway so that te chickens have good mulch to step on.



Garden clean up


  •          For the ESLP project in biology. I choose to fill up the burk tan and the burk wood and put it on in our garden to make it look better and neat. 2 people jobs were to fill the buckets with burk With there shovels. And the rest of us were helping to pour the burk on the garden. We also use the wheel barrel and, that help alot, to make it easier and faster. And there was two kind of burk, tan burk and wood burk, so we hadded to put the tan burk in the back of the tools barn and the wood burk we put them in the garden. So we kept doing this for 2 hours and i cant lie it was pretty hard. I did this project because its my classroom garden,  and i didnt want it to look bad, cause i dont like things rom me that its looks messy and not neat. 

As you can see this is how it turn out, we stack the burk up and we tried our best to make it look clean 


Then the 2 hours was done, then we put back our tools and gloves and the wheelbarrel back in the little barn!..

Garden Cleanup

For the ESLP project I had decided to do the garden clean up. For that, a few others and me were assigned to shovel mulch and put those in the pathways and garden beds. We got to work and started shoveling the mulch into the wheelbarrows, for the bark mulch we took the wheelbarrows to the garden bed, dumped it on to the garden bed, and the spreading the mulch around to cover the garden bed. We repeated this process for two or three times. Then, after that was done, the next was to cover the pathways. We went back to the parking lot to get the cedar bark this time. After we dumped the cedar bark into the wheelbarrow, we carried this to the area near the compost area, then dumped them onto the pathways. We did this for a few times, until it was looking nice for the garden. This was for the 1st hour and 20 minutes of the two hours required.

For the last 40 minutes of the two hours required, I did the same work as before. Shoveling the mulch and placing those into the wheelbarrows. This time we used the buckets and had a bit more help with the bark mulch. Then, for the last few minutes I and another person assisted with the shoveling of the cedar bark mulch. We just had to fill the buckets in and pass those to the others. All this from the parking lot, which after we were done. The mulch piles looked significantly smaller than before.

Garden Cleanup

     For the garden cleanup I decided to clean the shed. First we  looked in the shed and decided where every thing is going to. Then we began to take everything out of the shed  and swept out all of the dirt and gunk off of the floor. We put the chicken cage in the far right corner and we put the glass bottles to the right of that and all of the tools to the right of those. In the far left corner we put all of the wood and the mesh. We made the  mistake of putting some stuff in the wheelbarrows, so the next day we had to take every thing out of the wheelbarrows and propped the wheelbarrows up on the left side of the shed. When it was all said and done it took about 2 hours and now the shed looks better ever.

Both of the pictures shown above show what the shed looked like before we took everything out.

This picture shows how  the shed looked after we reorganized it.
