Week 3, Garden Cleaning

​

In the third week of Heritage Class the students worked to clean the Garden. The Garden was begun in 2012 and updated with a watering system and landscaping in 2013. Since then, the Garden has had quarterly upkeep by Museum Staff. With the local drought, many of the plants did not survive. This year the students were tasked with cleaning and removing some of the plants that died. Over eight bags of leaves and dead plant material were removed from the garden in a two—hour period. The students took their jobs seriously and also began weeding and trimming overgrown plants.
