Watch Me Work in the Garden 14

This video is part of my real-time documentation series showing the daily progress of the work I am doing around Saint Matthew Baptist Church, where Thrivival Academy operates. In this video, I start a leafy greens garden. Three sisters, Yaya, Faith, and Destiny, help me till the soil. Angel returns to help with the garden, and we dig a shallow trench for planting seeds. I show Angel the trench method of planting, then plant collard greens, Bloomsdale Longstanding spinach, Parris Island lettuce, Bibb lettuce, arugula lettuce, and City Garden mixed red and green lettuce. I also show Angel a Hori Hori knife and explain how to use it, stage lettuce plants for planting, dig up old mulch for the tomato garden, and water the plants. This series is meant to document the process of building Thrivival Academy, improving the church property, teaching practical skills, and creating a better space for youth, families, and the community.
