I did a lot of shovelling!<\/p><\/div>\n
My name is Ezra and I am in 8th grade at Steller. This summer I volunteered at the Seeds of Change Steller garden. I did a few various tasks, such as weeding, watering, and spreading wood chips. I went once a week for an hour to leave the house and socialize with other humans. It was a good experience because it was fun and I learned some basic gardening skills. I also liked that I got to bring home fresh vegetables like lettuce and cauliflower. <\/span><\/p>\n We made wood signs for the gardens.<\/p><\/div>\n Hi, my name is Eli and I am a current Senior at Steller Secondary. I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve been to a lot of different schools over my high school journey, and I have always tried to connect with the community as much as I could. When the pandemic began, most community events were canceled. Over the summer I saw Seeds of Change was re-starting the Steller garden, something I had never seen during my limited time at the school (I had joined Junior year). Volunteering at the garden every Wednesday over the summer gave me something to do during the monotony of quarantine life. In addition, not only did it provide me new skills in gardening I had never learned before, but it taught me soft skills such as long term planning and cooperation with others. <\/span><\/p>\n Thank you Eli and Ezra for your work in Steller Garden this summer. We are glad you enjoyed yourselves and learned something new! <\/em><\/p>\n Steller Parent Group<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.stellerschool712.org\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Eli-Pelletier-12-volenteering-at-the-Steller-Garden-600x575.jpeg\")
