American Garden Annual Report–2009

Posted by on January 30th, 2010

IN 2009  Hawken seventh graders have done extensive soil testing in the American Colonial Gardens. This testing included taking soil samples and invertebrate samples to see if the soil in the garden was healthy. Along with the testing we also did some work on the American Colonial Garden. We picked up trash and litter and learned about the history of the gardens. We are working to restore the Mark Twain bust and plan on putting it back up in the garden. Later in 2010, we are going to have a picnic and allow people to come and see the newly restored bust.

Sincerely,  Hawken School 7th Grade
