BEFORE:
 |
| The sad brown garden had once been a deck and then gravel had been laid down for a path years before. Here you can see the cement piers sticking out of the ground and an old bamboo bench in the back. |
 |
| Here we put the old gravel pathway onto black plastic sheets so we could reuse it. |
 |
| We reshaped the pathway to give it some character and then added the gravel back and bricks on the sides that were originally surrounding the cement piers. |
 |
| Leaves, rock, and weeds were cleared next. Recycled tiles from past projects were added to give the walkway a special touch. |
 |
| Plants were panted in pots. River rocks from the farm were added on either side in ellipses as a stage for plants and fish bowl. Soil was brought in for the right side and pineapples were planted. In the background students are constructing a bamboo trellis. |

 |
| Jay, a past student of Legacy, came to help build the trellis around the unsightly cement piers. The "design challenge" turned out to be a good thing after all because it brought the garden in and made a place for cucumbers to vine. |
 |
| A side view of the garden....getting close to being finished. Here tomatoes grow in the foreground. |
 |
| The sala bench is being completed here. Rainy season has made the garden extra green and we enjoy the beautiful view from our office in the teacher's house daily. |

 |
| Gourds that we grew at the farm. We cut holes in them to house orchids and hang around the garden. |
 |
| The new garden wouldn't be complete without its own one of a kind sign. |
