PENELOPE’S GARDEN
PROFILE
I want to work at the garden because: I would like to learn how to garden better and be able to help people
Two of my personal goals for working at the Dallas Youth Garden this summer are:
1. Not let all my plants die
2. Contribute as much as I can
Two things I hope to learn from working at the Dallas Youth Garden are:
1. How to properly plant veggies
2. How to not let my plants die
I think my biggest challenge will be: weeding
My favorite vegetable or fruit is: Watermelon
I hope to contribute this to the garden this year: As much veggies I can
