Community Garden

The community garden is located right behind the Macon Methodist Church. Here a company called Macon Roots started a community garden to allow people from the area to come in and plant some vegetables and fruits for food consumption. We as a group went through the gardens. We identified some plants, we did a Munsell color chart to figure out the type of soil was in the grounds of the community garden, and we looked at the different layers of soil. This was my second time going to the gardens from last semester and it seemed to have gotten more organized with its plants. We also played with mud-which means we used a series of tests to indicate the texture of the soil. This garden just gets me ready to go home and get mine going.
