     I worked on the garden on 3-20-13. Before we started working, there were a lot of overgrown weeds next to the fence by the band room. The worm pit had also not been replenished with newspaper. Individually, I worked on clearing out the weeds in the section of the garden next to the band room. I pulled up weeds, raked them out of the garden area, and threw them into the dumpster after transporting them with a wheel barrow. As a group, Amanda and I put fresh newspaper into the worm pit and cleaned out a lot of the weeds. We also watered the soil.
    The next group needs to continue with the weeding, because there is still much to be done. We might want to consider putting tarp over the weeds, so as to kill them faster. With the harvest, I think we should give some of it to the community, if we can get them to help out with the garden over the summer.
