Starting the garden, getting tree stumps and setting up starting fall crops to have school and community have a visual understanding of the early beginnings and relationship we will have to watching nature grow in our own community.
What challenges did or does your project face?
The unsafe neighboring community , COVID and need to create a barrier with the outside area to offer privacy.
How are you working to overcome them?
Added planter bags around our fence to provide privacy and give a sense of separation and an illusion of a differentiated space that is somewhere else.
What did you or your project learn this season that might be useful to others as well?
TO think outside the box and do not be afraid to go forward even in difficult times. Never be afraid to ask.
