George, Kevin, Jenifer, Jack Vertical Garden

Overview: For our biology lab, our group is creating a vertical garden using a variety of herbs, vegetables and flowers. None of the members in our group has gardening experience. Thus, we will use this oppurtunity to learn gardening skills, and observe plant growth. By growing the plants we see or eat daily, we will learn to cherish the gardeners and farmers. We will be closer to the nature. We expect to see our dream garden by late May.

Our idea is to plant our fruit and vegetables on and around a vertical "Jon" design shelf with grape, watermelon or tomato, and spinach.  Grape cirrus would be grown on the wooden structure.  Spinach would be grown on the ground, and watermelon would be grown somewhere on the structure.

Our garden would be a round area with the sign "JON" in the middle of the garden.  We would plant some green vegetable such as spinach or cilantro or broccoli.  We would set up a rectangular container on the structure and plant hot pepper or flowers on it.  Furthermore, we would grow some cirrus on the structure to make the entire garden more colorful and interesting.
