Planting one of our Apple Trees

On Thursday we went out and planted one of our baby apple trees.  We found a clearing in wild section to start digging.  The ground was very hard to dig up and the dirt was like clay.  There was too much long, wet grass on top of the dirt at first so we had to pull it out.  There were really pretty orange flowers where we decided to plant our apple tree.  We put a cut out plastic container around where we planted our tree so no one will step on it.  We will have to choose people to water it every day.  Now we will get to watch our apple tree grow.

Constructing Our Garden

Yesterday we started digging and planting the plants in our garden.  We did allot of digging, shovelling,  planting, and watering, it was very of fun. We had allot of pretty plants to put in our garden.  Allot of people had shovels and buckets.  I liked seeing all the people work together.  When we were done planting all the flowers we put mulch on top which we got using a wheelbarrow.  We also used the wheelbarrow to get stones for a path around our garden so people won't walk on our garden just around it.  Our garden is very beautiful now and lots of people will enjoy it.

Starting Our Garden


When we were digging, we found out that the dirt was too clumpy.  It was very hard to shovel and thick like clay.  The soil we brought in the bags was softer than the dirt we were digging up.  To help dig up the soil in the ground we could maybe use a rotary tiller.  We didn't know how to get the mulch to our garden, but then someone came up with the idea to use a wheelbarrow.

            A Postcard From Yellowknife, NT

            We got a post card.

            We thought some things were interesting:

            • You can dog sled there and you can drive on the river when its frozen.
            • You can see the northern lights from there.

            We have some questions:

            • Can we go there?
            • How would we get there?
            • How do you speak Dogrib?
