Aquaponic Community Garden

Something that I enjoy doing and makes me feel excited is tennis. I go there with my friends or alone, sometimes workout and others times to play it's a memory that I will always hold close to my heart. Another activity that I not only love doing but that benefits me in so many ways, I am extremely passionate about my cooking; being costa rican it's a big part of my life and my mom and I bond over tradition and it makes me excited every time.

What I want to get out of this project is a chance to bring a new innovative and sustainable form of gardening to my community which will lead to my part 2 of the project which is to bring awareness to nutrition and food security and what we can be doing for an affordable price to increase health in the community. It is also a chance for me to bond with the people who have had an impact in my life as well as new people I haven't gotten a chance to meet and for the community members to form connections among themselves through a common interest.

Something that I know how to do is how to change a tire, my family is really big on doing things themselves so special "mcgiver" skills are constantly being used and are super handy and helpful it also showcases creative thinking in many of the situations because you are having to come up with new ways to fix things all the time. Another skill that I feel is useful is sewing, I sew little bits of my clothing and its a good base to be able to be self-sustainable.
