PROFILE

I want to work at the garden because: I wanted to work in the garden because I love gardening, and I also wanted to meet and work with new people. I also wanted to find a summer job as well as find a way to make money.

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

  1. Learning new information about gardening and finding other ways to improve my gardening skills.

  2. Finding other ways to improve my social skills through the team gardening.

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

  1. What plants work best growing together and what plants struggle to grow close to each other.

  2. Learning more about what plants I enjoy gardening the most and what plants I don’t enjoy gardening as much.

I think my biggest challenge will be: weeding around the crops and vegetables, especially the squashes.

My favorite vegetable or fruit is: My favorite vegetable is carrots, because it reminds me of my grandpa, and how he loves boiled brown sugar carrots. I also love carrots because I find them to be really yummy.

I hope to contribute this to the garden this year: hard work, creative solutions, and a welcoming environment.
