I Promise to...
* Complete my gardening chores by 5:00 p.m., or 11:00 on Saturday.
* Always wear closed-toe shoes.
* Maintain my own garden by weeding, fertilizing, and harvesting.
* Work in my project book, in order to keep a record of what I learn.
* Never take anything from someone else's garden plot without the owner's O.K.
* Always try to conserve water by using the rain barrels and watering cans.
* Clean each tool and return it after use.
* Pay attention to the classes offered.
* Conduct myself in a proper way, being safe and respectful.
* Never waste anything grown on the property.
* Ask permission before taking tools, fertilizer, seed, or exploring the citrus grove.
* Remember I am here to garden, learn, and have fun, not just to play.
