RYLEIGH’S GARDEN

PROFILE

I want to work at the garden because: I enjoy the outdoors, i want to help our community, and learn new skills

Two of my personal goals for working at the Dallas Youth Garden this summer are:

  1. I want to improve my skills when it comes to hands-on work.

  2. learn a new recipe with the produce I have grown.

Two things I hope to learn from working at the Dallas Youth Garden are:

1. I want to learn how to manage and take care of plants properly so I can grow more at home.

2. I want to learn work ethic and what it is like to have a job.

I think my biggest challenge will be: managing the weeds in my garden

My favorite vegetable or fruit is: strawberries!!

I hope to contribute this to the garden this year: effort and kindness
