Digging into our turtle power – Day 1 of Hands-on work!


On the 10th of February, our team got together to start working on the various tasks that were needed to be completed for the open house – an event that is going to be held in the greenhouse during the month of March. (If you haven’t already, you can read about the different events and tasks that we’ll be working on by reading our previous blog post). Throughout the day, we performed various tasks which included the following:

  • Sweeping the greenhouse area.
  • Arranging and moving different types of plant containers.

  • Filling multiple containers with loam.


  • Collecting and disposing off plant debris across the greenhouse.

We decided to include the above image because it shows plant debris that have fallen beside the plant. This image also shows a plant being grown in the container.


  • Cutting multiple nodes of the Purple Queen (Tradescantia pallida) plant and planting these cuttings into the containers filled with loam.

We’re extremely happy to have been a part of this because these plants are going to be given away during the open house.

The Ninja Turtles had a great time during our day at work and we are looking forward to our next trip to the greenhouse! 🙂
