What are some similarities differences between our garden community and the Seedfolks garden community?
                              Our garden is similar to the Seedfolks garden because we asked community members and the city to help, and they ask the community members and city to help. Garden brings people together Kim first star the garden then a lot people together work in Garden we Mrs. Beymer class and Ms. Wright's class come together at first to work the garden. Other people helped when needed, student and character Wendell, Ana, and Sam.Wendell helped Kim water the plant and other student help innocent water the plant.
                                    Our garden is difference from the Seedfolks garden because we already had water from hose, but the bill cost to much, they needed help come up ideas how to get water, they use rain from spout to cans with funnel. They did not talk it out how to build garden they get idea themselves, and choose they own plant that they want to plant. We are different we need to  get idea how to plant, we come up idea what to plant and what season to plant how many inches or feet part the plant.
                              An example of how the two gardens are similar is some people plant for other people. We plant for our class to make a project.
                              A example of community in the gardens are different is Virgil's father planted in wrong season, we plant in right season because we search what season to plant.
                              An example of community in our garden is we get together do all the jobs together share idea, talk it out what to do. We help each what to plant, how to plant the garden with different plant, how many space apart the plant was.
                              An example of community in the Seedfolks garden is Seedfolks they plant in one place called vacant lot they all get community in that place help each other
