Gardening Adventures

Today marked our last day at the Mustard Seed House, as our group was on to new adventures in the southern region of the state. The group got on the road early, and we were off to Buras, Louisiana!

We spent the majority of the day helping a gentleman near the town plant a large garden on his property. We started out by tilling and clearing five rows to prepare for planting. We planted watermelon, onion, pumpkin, pepper, cucumber and some flowers. 

  

  
We finished up around 5 o’clock and headed to the southern most point in Louisiana. Tonight we’re staying at the Woodland Plantation and will be heading back to the Woodlands Preserve to continue vegetation transects tomorrow.
