This will help the school in general because it shows that we care about nature and that our schools has a good look to it. It will also help the kitchen staff create better meals for students with fresh food which is really healthy. It may impact the architects who build the school becasue they will have to encorporate the garden into the highschool when it is being built. Finally it will affect anyone who helps out at the garden because they will get to learn the importance of helping nature and the importance of working with others to comeplete a goal. Hopefully overall this garden will benefit all in some way leading to its growth and our growth along with it.

I could improve my garden by adding just more garden, more flowers(I really like sunflowers) more vegetables, and more herbs so that there is more of a reason to visit the garden. I could also add paths to the garden so that people can walk around the garden without the risk of harming the plants. I could create a binder that has the sign ups on it so that the volunteering could be more official and more organized so it does not flop.

1. The first test I would use would be to get pots of each of the plants and test if they were to grow. I would use the same dirt and water them the same to see whether the plants I used grow the way I want them too.
2. To test the crops I woud plant them and take whatever they produce and use them in a special school lunch to see if they worth growing and if they don't poison the people who eat them.
3. Have someone plant some evergreen shrubs behing the George and wait for them to grow. Once they are grown they will make a design and try to control it to see whether it is able to be kept in good condition while still looking how we ant it too.

Week One: Place down wood planks(Home Depot) 4ft. from the ground that go 10ft., 10ft. and place three more planks 2.5 ft. away from each other in the middle. Then, fill in three feet of the whole garden with normal dirt and gotten from Woody's. Finally create a slope that starts at one edge of the garden and have it slowly go down for five feet and, add some pinestraw also from Woody's. Add a small fence around the little slope.
Week two: Add a layer of Miracle-Gro garden soil(Home Depot) to give the plants nutrients to grow and assign a person to water the dirt to keep its nutrients and so that later it will be for the plants.
Week three: Buy some evergreen shrubs and plant three of them 2 ft. away from each other. Also buy the flowers (Daisies and Tulips), vegetables (Carrots and Lettuce), and the herbs (Mint and cilantro). Plant them in their respective spots and water them regularly
Week Four: Get volunteers to take care of the garden by weeding, and watering it.
*Whenever Plants begin to produce* Get some people to gather the vegetables, and herbs and wash them so they can be consumed.

This is the drawing of my final idea with pictures to say where they are gonna go and they are labeled underneath.

I chose my idea to make the NDA logo using the flowers and vegetables/herbs and having the actual garden behind it for a couple reasons. It will be a big promotional thing that all the people will see when they come to school. It also still has the herbs and vegetables that will help the kitchen but it also has a nice looking face. This is also one of the most creative ideas that I have so it stuck with me the most.

-Having ten beds in five by five rows, no space between, with five of the front ones with flowers, and the back five will have vegetables and herbs
-Place a 30ft., 30ft. wire fence with all the crops placed in rows inside
-Make a design out of some flowers and hedges with an NDA logo in it with some herbs behind it
-Make some flowers in a design of aomething with some vegetables inside
-Create an interactive garden which follows a path where you pass certain plants and there is an informational sign near all of them
-Have a prayer garden that not only has flowers and crops but also a statue of Mary that anyone can come and visit

Needs to have:
-something growing inside of the garden
-some type of herb or vegetable so the kitchen can create salads with fresh fruit.
-a garden with eye catching flowers that will be appealing to people who see it when visiting NDA
-there must be some type of organized gathering for weeding, watering, etc. so that people have a chance to gather, and they can get service
-The garden should have an area greater than 50ft. squared so it is not a little backyard garden that isn't noticable
-It shoud be less than 150ft. squared because than that might be too big to take care of
-Must be cheap to make and take care of so that the school does not lose money on this
-needs to be in the field next to the George where the previous garden exists

I chose the four pictures because they each have one aspect of something that I like about gardens. The rooftop gardens show that even though urbanization has created big cities with less nature, there can still be natural beauty everywhere. The community garden is just in general a nice way to hang out with people while still caring for the world. My ideal garden also doesn't want to look boring so taking tips from a garden professionally built like Gibb's garden. Also because we are a Marist school it wouldn't do anything bad to add a statue of Mary so that poeple can pray in a wonderful area surronded by God's creations.

This is garden where people can go and pray to Mary while being in the surrounding of a garden.

This is a rooftop garden on top of a somewhat tall building which shows that a garden can be grown anywhere and that it will be good thing to put in a place that might not be used for anything.

This is a good garden from Gibbs's Garden in Georgia with a beautiful set piece that will make people remember the beauty of our school.

This is an example of a community garden where everyone works together to plant and care for this garden.

NDA should create a garden for many reasons; it creates community, gives us fresh food, and gives a good picture of NDA. If we were to make a garden it would be a great chance for students, faculty, and their families to come together and create lasting bonds that would otherwise never happen. Then, it gives families and the kitchen staff a chance at fresh fruit, vegetables, and herbs that could improve health of all people. Also, other than totally non-selfish reasons, this garden is something that the school can advertise using the two reasons above and more. Overall this garden will be a great setpiece that our generation and future generations will remember.
