Community Impact Project

These past few weeks the Community Impact Project group Tāne Māhuta has been working in the garden to create a workable outside classroom. Last week we started cleaning out the old greenhouse to make it look tidier and look newer. We also cleaned soil out of tyres and carried them to a outback space. We also removed old pieces of wood to a outback space. We also shoveled all the soil from the tyres to a side patch of grass. Today we continued cleaning the old greenhouse out and turned a row of soil over. 

Why it's good to turn soil over:
When people walk on the paths around beds rather than on them the soil stays loose, making it easy for the plant roots the transport moisture and nutrients. 

Why do you find worms in your garden:
Earthworms are normally used as bait for anglers, but they're essential to healthy gardens and are great in compost areas because they break down organic matters quickly and turns it into nutrients-rich-soil.
