MLK+Day+of+Service+-+Good+Hope+Farm



On January 15th, I went to Good Hope Farm for my action plan. There, we helped the farmers prepare for the farming season in the spring by doing some cleaning up on the fields. My group and I shoveled/raked all the mulch and leaves, and we put them in wagons to carry out to areas of the fields where they could be spread over the grass. These simple tasks of cleaning up the fields are helpful to the environment because we are helping the soil stay healthy so that the crops which will be harvested will also be healthy. Many people came out there to help on the farm and we were productive enough to have cleaned up most of the fields so that they are ready to grow their crops.
