Going to the second day of farming was difficult for me because I was extremely tired from staying up late completing an essay the night before. However, what helped me get out of bed was the fact that not only my classmates were counting on me for a ride but Jay and Suzie also were and seemed excited for us to be there. The second day of farming was a gloomy, cold but an eventful day. We continued the familiar task of weed picking then got to learn more about the crops and different types of crops and vegetables Potrero Nuevo has to offer. One of the crops we learned about was Rhubarb, a plant I never heard of before. Suzie even let us try the plant! It was somewhat sour but not bad. We then learned more about the strawberry field that we had seen the first day. It was awesome to see the compost tea in action after seeing some growth from the strawberries. We then helped Suzie prepare for a new crop she was planting. We also spent some time in the green house.
