Layout Begins!

Can you start to see the paths?
First Fibonacci of the day


Happy Halloween!

The beautiful garden dressed up as a pile of dirt. (But not for long!)


It was a great day at DeGolyer and what better way to enjoy it than to layout the garden concrete shapes? Todd Smith, Dad's Club President and concrete aficionado and Donna Marquet spent the day pouring of the plans, double checking the measurements and fitting it in the space. Luckily everything fit beautifully with only a few very minor adjustments. Circles, rectangles, triangles and the Fibonacci curves were laid out with the same mathematical principals we hope the kids will embrace. 

The black plastic boarders that will serve as our raised bed boarders in the vegetable garden were also delivered by DISD ground crews.  

Next step- build the forms for the concrete, lay the rebar and then we are ready to pour… Early next week!  Perfect timing and ready for our first family build day!
