Planning for our garden

"Today in Agriculture Task Force we discussed what fruits and vegetables we are going to plant in the CJA garden.  This is very cool.  We are going to plant tomatoes, onions, watermelons, and strawberries. MMMMMM!  I discuss the future with my family every day.  I wish we could plant grapes instead of strawberries.  Task Force is cool; I really like it.  It makes me feel like I am helping the earth, my school, and it feels like I am doing things in a less polluted way.  :)"

"We looked up new foods to plant because all of our plants are dead.  So we need to re-plant them and I suggested we grow some Jamaican plants and carnivorous plants, but we need a different environment for some of them.  It was awesome doing what we were about to do, and I like helping the environment."

"Everyone came up with good ideas to add to the list.  We came up with raspberries, blueberries, and other things.  We'll even try a pineapple.  My aunt is going to start getting her garden ready for he spring, too.  She has a book of seeds and plants and she's writing out a list of things she's going to plant and maybe going to plant.  She's going to plant cucumbers and tomatoes.  I feel this year our garden is going to be the best of all the gardens we've had so far."
