Work Experience

Personal Home Gardener

The Wright's Homestead-Kirkman, IA

April 2004 to Present

I helped my father with our home's one-acre garden until I was old enough to take over the duties

completely. I plow, plant, fertilize, water, weed, prune, control pests, and harvest the garden. I also create

animal barriers like deer and rabbit fencing and bird netting. I started using a weed barrier in the garden

and also taking the extra produce to the farmer's market in the last few years. Chainsaws were used to

prune trees, cut down unhealthy trees as needed, and turned into firewood. I help care for farm animals.
