my family and i do not do this for money but to help me with my working experience, since i am interested and eager to work. .. My family and i do multiple jobs throughout this job such as: Mowing the lawns, Prooning trees around walkway areas so there is enough space for the community to make there way through the garden. Using sticks and pulled out weeds from out the gardens, to buildup the side of banks to help the land from not sliding into the river. Using rocks to help build the sides of our gardens to help reduce the snails and slugs ruining our vegetables and restrict dogs or cats from walking all over the food. We do not use pest or weed killer, as we do not believe that is a safe and/or healthy way of looking after plants that people eat from, as we do not want people eating poison, which we take into a lot of consideration since most importantly, that the fruit tress, plants, and vegetables are well looked after for community members to be able to collect any food that they're needing. Community members come in and out of the garden daily, We interact with them and hoping we are able to fulfill their needs. If we are not able to, we suggest other gardens or places that may have plants for them to be able to grow in their own garden at home.
