Reflection

1. How did this visit change you?
This visit changed me by making me think more about the Earth and how gardens like the seniors have help it.

2. What struck you about the garden?
The thing that struck me about the garden was the fact that the seniors did all the gardening themselves.

3. What did you like/not like about the garden?
I liked the fact that the whole garden was organic and all done by students of HTHMA, though, I did not like the fact that there were bugs everywhere and there was no way to keep them away.

4. Did this inspire you to grow your own garden?
No, it hasn't, though it has made me be more aware of the Earth.
