This is the twenty-seventh day of my research assistant role of the Youth Garden Project. Today's location was at the Tuskegee University Greenhouse and Tuskegee University Chambliss Building (old business bldg).
Today we met with the children from SafeHaven to plant bell peppers and perform weed control on their boxes. The duration for their activity was a two hour period from 7:00 AM to 9:00 AM. Later that same day, the junior interns and the other research assistants including myself met with the YMCA children to begin their activities of picture painting images of fruit, vegetables, and flowers. The age categories who had an opportunity to participate were the 5-6 and 9-10 year olds. After some of the children completed their activity that had an opportunity to engage in a game of red light-green light, duck-duck goose, and simon says. The duration of the YMCA children activity was approximatley two and a half hours long and this includes both of the two age categories.
