Each month we are required to attend service projects where we do varied projects to help out at a local organization and/or nonprofit group. Our April 2015 service project was held at Peacehaven farms, a local farm in Whitsett, NC that provides housing for developmentally disabled people. The Farm helps with teaching their clients life skills, social skills, and farming. We helped with raised gardens by covering them. We had a couple overnight freezes in April which could have been disastrous for the Peacehaven crops. We were also asked to turn the ground to make it easier for the clients to plant spring crops. It was really fun to get down and dirty with the Peacehaven clients and the Mayor of Peacehaven. We also played a game of group Feud, which was hilarious.
