Garden Service

NS, Westmont, D12W

On June 17th, our club had a day of service in the garden behind Room 60 at Westmont High School. During the event, we set up a raised garden bed, added soil, and planted four desert king watermelon seedlings. There were six Westmont students who participated in the event. Furthermore, we also trimmed and took care of our other raised garden bed, which grows several fruits and vegetables such as bell peppers and kale. The best part of the event was placing the seedlings into the soil, because we were all excited to watch the plants grow as we took care of them. We also developed a watering schedule to ensure that each garden bed would be watered once a day during the summer.
