Currently, on the farm, every student has just got assigned a new bed and a new management job ranging from the water crew to management crew and many more. Currently, in our one beds, which are sixty square feet, we are watering and weeding and trying to set the best opportunity for our plants to grow and eventually be sold at our markets. In our one beds, my group at the beginning of the year planted potatoes, leaf lettuce beans and kale that was fully grown from a group the prior year.
Now with our new beds, we have just finished clearing the weeds from them and now we are beginning to plant or maintain what was already planted therefrom, prior groups.
To begin the semester I was the watering crew, where we handled the drip irrigation and anything to do with water around the farm. I have recently switched to the companion group. Their job is to weed anywhere that needs weeding and write down any organisms they see around the farm. Every student will have a chance to experience every job at least one time throughout the year.
