Jordan Sabalsa: Bio

Hi my name is Jordan. I was born in Stockton and lived there for less than a year then moved to Manteca and lived there for about 1 year and 1/2 or 2 then moved to San Jose where I mostly grew up. I went to two middle schools and now I am enjoying WGHS.

At my elementary school it was a science magnet school called Hacienda. We had science class with all these cool animals and we also had this huge outdoors area. Our science teacher would take us out to the garden and help us grow vegetables, fruits and plants. Some things I remember growing is flowers strawberries, lettuce, tomatoes etc.  The relationship I had with my teacher was that he was one of the best science teachers I've had, Mr. Keedy.

Hi, my name is Shelby Cortez I have lived in San Jose, California all my life. The only experience I've had with gardening is helping my mom plant in our backyard and front yard, and also helping tend to our citrus trees. My mom is the most influential person in my life that has worked with gardening. On the weekends, she spends most of her time gardening and goes to Orchard Supply and Home Depot to get new plants regularly. I've learned a lot from her in the aspect that I've developed a good sense of tending to plants and food. When I was little I spent a lot of time in our side garden and growing little plants by the side while my mom would work with our citrus trees. Being outside in our garden and helping my mom with our plants was something that was really significant in my childhood and it's something I will always rememeber.

Hi my name is Mason. I have lived in the Santa Clara Valley for my whole entire life so far. I have had some experience gardening with my grandma because she has a garden in her backyard, it's has been awhile but it was pretty fun watching the plants grow up and mature. We grew many things, but some of the ones that I can remember are strawberries, peaches on her peach trees, and many more. My grandma is someone who I think about because ever since i can remember is her gardening all day in the backyard. My Grandma has been in my life and has taught me to do may thinks and gardening is one of them.
