Growing Abundance

A Project by Ethan Pinkerton

For my project I used my allotted funds to completely renovate my existing garden. I already had plans to use it again but didn’t have the means to fulfill it to its full potential. With the money I received, I was able to construct a raised bed that offers more room for plants and get extremely rich nutrients for the whole garden soil. This garden directly impacts myself, and the people I live with. Throughout this season we will have an abundant amount of tomatoes, cherry tomatoes, sweet peppers, spinach, kale, oregano, mint, green onions, garlic, potatoes, cucumbers, watermelon, cantaloupe, and pumpkins just for fun.


This experience has allowed me to turn my garden into everything I’ve wanted it to be. It’s an amazing feeling to bring a vision into reality, and I’m very excited to watch my plants grow up big and strong.
