Nutrition in the Community

April 3rd- Today we met Meghan at the Community Gardens. She showed us where our plot was located and where the water and tools were to start our weeding and planting. It was interesting to see everyone different plots that were out there and how everyone had different methods to planting in the different plots.   After Meghan was done talking, we got into our groups to talk about what group we wanted to concentrate with during our project. We also talked about what days we wanted to meet to start the weeding. It was very interesting to see the Garden because I had never been there before.

April 5th- Today were were assigned our agency and assessment project.  For my agency project, I am doing Garden Writers Association- Plant a row for the hungry. I feel that it will be interesting to learn for more about this great cause. For our assessment project, our topic that was chosen was children in Appalachia. I feel that it was a great topic to chose due to the fact that children are our future. We also got into our assessment groups to talk about what plants we think we should begin planting.  Overall, I felt that today we accomplished a lot during class time.
