Still planting

Students and Mr. Raul Shish planted watermelon, cilantro (under the palm shade), radishes, and cucumbers. They prepared land with pick axes and shovels removing stumps and heavy roots. They carried 5 gallon buckets of water from a pond to water all the seeds. They are truly learning how to farm at a level for sustainable living as a family. The school will use all the produce to prepare meals for the students. This will reduce the cost for the families of the students.
