Hi. Nice to meet you. =)

We are university students in Korea, and we are studying English in groups. We want to improve our English, so please give us some feedback.


This is our 1st instructable: Start urban gardening


We hope to start gardening, but there is no sufficient space to grow plants, and also we don't know well about gardening in urban.
Therefore, our English teacher ,Richard, helps us to start it.

Be careful. This step is dangerous. It can hurt your fingers.
