Projects and Market

This week in all Sustainable Agriculture classes, we got into the grind of working on our final projects as well as prepare for a market day.
Before we had time to work on our final projects on Wednesday, we had to get a little business out of the way. On Monday and Tuesday, we were in the classroom working on either collaborating with our final project partners or reading our books. On Monday, we wrote a short summary about what our individual books have been about so far in our readings. We also added questions that we think would spark conversation about our books next Tuesday.
Finally as Wednesday rolled around, we had the opportunity to work on our final projects. In my case, Alex and I spent the entire class working out the spacing for our dibble boards, while others worked on projects such as creating wooden signs for around the farm and videotaping lessons for future students.
On Friday, we gathered as a group to prepare for the market day. We harvested plants such as strawberries, cilantro, artichokes, lavender, mint, and many others.
This week was not only productive for individual work groups, it was productive for Sustainable Agriculture as a whole.
