During this immersive volunteer experience with Girls Inc., I improved my gardening and teamwork skills! I do not know a whole lot about gardening or tending to a big lawn, but I learned a lot through the leaders of this service. Gardening is such an important skill, especially now because the environment is depleting, and it is so important to grow your own fruits and veggies. This service really inspired me to want to grow my own garden and not have all the added preservatives. I had a lot of conversations, and we used a lot of teamwork to get the tasks done. It was fun to talk and relate to the people around me during this service because it made time fly. We contributed to Girls Inc.'s progress by helping some Girls Inc. girls complete their daily tasks. The heat was definitely challenging, but with conversation and laughter, before I even knew it, the service was over.
