Eight Green Thumbs

1st and 2nd period biodiesel is going strong.
Projects are finishing up, and some are completely done, like the planter box team.

The planter box team after a hard day's work.
From left to right: Jack Lockwood, Kelsey Lanier, Logan Hunt, and Mary Ryan

Yesterday, they spent all day (excused from their other classes and making up their missed work, of course) replanting the foilage outside. They planted 3 brand new palm trees to provide more shade for the building, and about 100 flowers in the remaining boxes. The flower boxes also happen to be the ones that the team rebuilt and repaired, after a car hit and destroyed them in the summer. The team worked extremely hard and the result definitely demonstrates so. Below are some shots of their finished products.








The finished product. Beautiful, isn't it?
They are also finishing up another project, which is a different planter box that resides under an AC unit. The idea is to get the water that drips out of the unit and connect it to a hose that will irrigate the planter box near it. The plants will provide shade for the other building near ours, where the planter box is located. It is built out of concrete, and the team sealed it to ensure no water would leak out. Their main issue right now is figuring out how to get the water from one place to the next, while also watering all of the plants, not just a portion.

The other planter box and the AC unit.
Keep up the good work, bio-nauts!
And keep checking back to see our progress!

Its such as you learn my thoughts! You appear to grasp so much approximately
this, such as you wrote the book in it or something.
I feel that you simply can do with a few percent to drive the message house a little bit, but instead of that,
this is magnificent blog. A great read. I'll definitely be back.

Hello! I understand this is sort of off-topic however I had to ask.
Does running a well-established website such as yours
take a lot of work? I'm completely new to blogging but I do write in my journal every day. I'd
like to start a blog so I will be able to share my personal
experience and views online. Please let me know if you
have any ideas or tips for brand new aspiring bloggers. Appreciate it!

Hey just wanted to give you a quick heads up. The text in your content seem to
be running off the screen in Ie. I'm not sure if this is a format issue or something to do with browser compatibility but I thought I'd post to let you know.

The layout look great though! Hope you get the issue solved soon.
Thanks

easiest thing to take into accout of. I say to you, I definitely get annoyed even as people consider worries that they plainly
don't realize about. You managed to hit the nail upon the highest and defined out the entire thing without having side effect , folks can take a signal. Will likely be back to get more. Thank you

Hello, I think your website might be having browser compatibility issues.
When I look at your blog in Safari, it looks fine but when opening in Internet Explorer, it has some overlapping.
I just wanted to give you a quick heads up! Other then that, awesome blog!
