Creating a community garden was one of the many things we wanted our students to experience. All 22 of the students voted on which seeds they wanted to plant and over the last 5 weeks of camp we watched their little seedlings sprout. They grew carrots, watermelon, pumpkins, peas and garden beans. The students were asked:
Why do you think it is important to have community gardens in an urban area?
If you could pant your own community garden what would you plant in it?
