                                          11      Meanwhile, in the morning shade of the
                                               school, Paul hands out seeds to plant in a waffle
                                               bed. The bed’s low walls of adobe bricks help

                                               keep water in.


                                          12      Another group of students plants squash
                                               seedlings. Danielle helps a student transplant a

                                               tomato seedling. Once the seeds and seedlings
                                               are in the ground, the beds are watered and

                                               covered with a mulch of straw. This helps to

                                               keep the soil from drying out.


                                          13      A lot of water is needed to keep the garden
                                               healthy. When it rains, water flows off the roof,
                                               down a drainpipe, and into an underground

                                               tank called a cistern. A solar panel on the roof

                                                 wood chips around your plants to help protect them.
