So today, Mark, Tou Yia and I met to brainstorm some ideas and get our 'Urban Forest' project going. The plan was to list who and what to observe, how we are going to observe them and with what medium.

We also went on a small field trip to check out the Carleton Greenhouse. Fortunately we ran into the greenhouse manager Ed Bruggink who maintains the greenhouses. We asked some questions, to learn more about what he does and asked him to fertilize the plants while we video and photograph him.
