Wendy went over the structure of the soil elements involved in farming and gardening, and Steve gave a presentation on organic matter in the soil, from green living, to decomposing compast and natural plant decay to humus.

Students went into the field to apply what they learned through adding compost mulch to the existing beds,

digging in compast, and planting starts in the new and existing beds.

Excercises in watering in, hose management and general plant maintainence were performed.
