The rich clay soil was already prepared for planting, but the students found it challenging to dig through the heavy dirt to plant their seedlings. Each and every one of us enjoyed the opportunity to leave our computers behind and take in the fresh air of the park. We felt satisfaction at having planted so many seedlings with the prospect of a heavy downpour that was forecast for the evening. Hopefully, the seedlings will survive through the next summer and we may visit the park in the future to see the good work the students achieved.
