My Garden clean up experience. By Carlos


    Hi my name is Carlos and i signed up for the garden clean up project. The photo on the right shows the dirt that I moved from one place to another to keep the chicken pit clean. Working on this project was hard because carrying the dirt was very heavy, but it was also fun and I enjoy the work because I worked with my friends as a team.
    I also helped clean the parking lot near the garden area. I cuts some weeds and i picked some garbage.  I enjoyed working on this project because i learned how to take care of a garden and also the importance of not lettering.
My Garden Clean Up Experience



The only time I recall working in a garden was eight years ago back in 1st grade. So going into the garden cleanup in 9th grade, I thought that things will get complicated. But, surprisingly, things were pretty easy. When I first went in, all I had to do is put chicken manure, hay, and leaves on a certain spot and wet them so that way, the manure can decompose. That took me an hour and thirty minutes. On the last thirty minutes, I adjusted the stones that formed a shape around a pile of dirt. Doing this project (especially since the last time I did it was almost a decade ago), I thought it was cool cleaning up a garden.

 In the garden we put new tanbark over the old one. The tanbark helped keep the chickens clean. I also helped to pick up trash that was left all over the tanbark. We had to keep it clean for the chickens to feel comfortable. It will be nasty if the tan bark was old and dirty and it would also not look noice in the garden.  I also watered the plants for a bit. This is what I did for my service project in the garden.
Working in the garden allowed me to learn why certain things need to go in a garden. In the garden I worked on moving the tan bark, and putting it over the old tan bark. The reason why we had to put new tan bark because over time it gets old and the chickens poop on it and it gets really nasty. When we put the new tan bark the garden not only looks nicer but it also gives the chickens a cleaner place to live. The chickens are in a cleaner place because eventually all there businesses they do tbey will just walk in and when people go inside they will always be steping on the chickens business. This is what I dis in the garden for my service project and why its important.

Biology-P1-Buerk-Sydney


For my part of the garden cleanup, I mostly participated in being handy with the wheelbarrow.  I got some gloves and a shovel and began shoveling up wood chip mulch. I would then roll the big pile over by the open area by the fence and would dump everything out.  Then, I would use my hands to spread an even layer until I needed to go go back for more. I repeated this until most of the ground was covered and only a small amount of wood chip mulch remained.   Wood chip mulch covers the dirt and soil and protects rain and harsh weather from ruining it. It also keeps the dirt healthy and moist. The reason this is necessary is because we need to not only protect plants, but also the part of the ground where birds, animals, or any other abiotic or biotic factor could possibly destroy the healthy soil.
