Vaibhav Muthuraman’s Conservation Outing at Fertile GroundWorks

Categories: Conservation and News.

On November 21st Vaibhav Muthuraman led a group of scouts in a conservation outing at Fertile GroundWorks. Fertile GroundWorks is a non-profit organization that teaches people how to grow and harvest healthy food for them to eat. They also give fresh fruits and vegetables that they grew themselves to food pantries to help feed those in need.

The goal of Vaibhav’s project was to dig 18-inch ditches to help them move water pipes under the ground. This made their process of moving water pipes much more efficient. This was a multi-week project and Vaibhav’s team was only there for three hours and dug six inches throughout the water pipeline area as this was extremely strenuous work, even with eight scouts there. But, at the end the team put all their energy and actually dug an 18-inch hole all by themselves. Vaibhav and his team got Fertile GroundWorks a really good head start on their project

                                                       

After working hard for three hours, Vaibhav’s team took a picture with the Fertile GroundWorks sign to commemorate their hard work.

Vaibhav’s project shows that if you put hard work in you can actually achieve a lot. Hopefully Vaibhav and his team inspire you to give back to the community more.
