Week 6: Reflection

As our garden project draws to a close we have decided to reflect on what we have accomplished during this project. What follows are a few questions about the garden that we have asked ourselves.

1. What went well?: I think that the construction of the trellis's went well. I also thought that the yield and variety of vegetables that we have grown was a positive result of the garden. I think that the work we did in the garden went well, such as the weeding and observing. Tips for building a trellis

2. What was challenging?: I thought that transplanting the vegetables in the tray to the garden was the most challenging task. Some of the vegetables in the tray did not grow and some of the vegetables we transplanted into the garden were dug up and eaten by an unknown creature.

3. What would you do differently if you did this again?: I think I would plan out each garden plot more thoroughly and I would make a more detailed record of where everything was in the garden. I also think that a fair amount of the problems came from us not having enough people to work on the garden. I understand that I could not do anything about this issue and I am not blaming anyone but it would have been easier if we had more people. Tips for planning a garden

4. Do you see yourself starting your own garden someday?: I do not think I would start my own garden. I do not really have the time to manage and take care of a garden like the one we have. Another reason for why I would not start a garden is I simply do not find it very interesting, there are other recreational activities that I would rather do with my time.
