Brief Bio of Maya Lewis

My name is Maya Lewis. I am originally from San Jose, California. I have gardened and grown food before. My mom, sister, and I move around a lot, but we always make sure we have some sort of garden. Some of the plants in my past gardens include basil, eggplant, tomatoes etc. What I remember about the experiences is always eating basil straight out of the pot. My maternal grandma gardened a lot before she had a stroke. She lives in Newark, California. Her garden is extensive. It has persimmons, pomegranates, almonds, grapes, etc. She would always pick them when they were ripe and give us bagfuls of fruit when we came over to her house. My mom also used the vegetables and fruits she grew to cook us healthy, homemade meals when my sister and I were younger.

Brief Bio of Abel Spackman

     My name is Abel Spackman. I moved here from Louisville, CO, just this summer with my mom, dad, and sister.
   
     I've never gardened much before and my family also has very little experience in the matter. My grandma does have a small garden but she never grew anything edible, only some flowers. I'm hoping that after this project, I will know more about both Kohlrabi and gardening in general.
