ACTIVITY LOG 2:
First day of working on it and it is almost ready. Only one more day will be needed to complete it. We built the box with some rustic looking planks of wood by nailing them together with the nail gun. Then we stapled the chicken wire to the box before adding the frame to it. Next we went to Kelsey’s compost bin to grab some fresh homemade dirt. We encountered some big worms that were quite big and nasty but overall very healthy for the soil. We added the dirt through the chicken wire, and sprayed it with water to pack it down tightly. We used tools like shovels and blocks of wood to spread the wood across the screen causing it to fill the box. When adding the dirt we also had to extract the huge worms which were contaminating out process. When cutting the wood for the frame Dave Musolf was there to supervise us and make sure we didn’t cut off a finger (He is an adult with very high skill levels in woodworking). With his help we were able to finish everything except for the installment of the succulents.
