Gardening/Outdoor Education

June - August 2018 • Ithaca, NY

What I liked

I loved being outside and seeing the kids enjoying the outdoors as well. I liked learning about plants, and plants that are edible.

What I wish was different

I wish I had applied earlier so I could have led a camp program.

Advice

Put yourself out there with experiences, even if it isn't exactly what you want to do. Just getting yourself experience within an awesome program helps a lot!
