Braved the hot sun, my friends and I went to Yale
farm on Friday afternoon. It was not far away from our college, just ten minutes
bus and another ten minutes walk. There were about ten people here when we
arrived the farm. They were working just now. We told them that we wanted to be
volunteers. They were happy to hear that and told us we could participate in
right now.
The work was to put the gravel in the soil where there
were some vegetables. The gravel could keep soil’s temperature in a low level
and avoided the sunshine shining in the soil directly. I was good at that because I had
done that in my grandparents’ farm. It demanded not just physical strength but also
patience to do a duplicate thing dozens of times. It was so hot that sweat drenched
our clothes. It took an hour to do this work and we were tired and thirsty.
Then the staff led us to a water-tap and told us the water here was natural. We
were too thirsty and drank the water as much as we could. It was really cool and
I loved the natural water. There was a pity that the pizza didn’t offer that day so we can’t
try to make the pizza by ourselves. But we still got many happiness here. It was a worthwhile exploration.
