Autobiography: Gisselle Muñoz

           My name is Gisselle Muñoz and I was born in Santa Clara, California. I've lived in San Jose, California all my life. I have family in Mexico, Chicago, and Canada.

      I haven't really ever gardened before, but when I was in elementary school I helped grow some vegetables in our school garden. I remember having to dig the soil to plant the seeds and watch the seeds grow overtime. In my backyard, my dad has created a small garden which he plants food in. I know that my dad plants tomato seeds, squash, and some other vegetables. He tries to be very careful with them so they won't get more water than they need and animals will not get on them. I have seen him garden and I think it is interesting that a big vegetable was once a small seed. I am excited to learn more about plants.

Autobiography-Alexis McKenzie

My name is Alexis McKenzie and I am from  Los Gatos,California but now I live in San Jose. 

I've grown strawberries,snap peas,tomatoes and basil. I experienced that squirrels like to eat strawberries and when tomatoes get too much water their outer skin splits. My aunt Tiffini has a garden full of the hottest peppers in the world. She has been growing them for many years now. My aunt grows so many peppers she gives them to the whole family. She also puts many peppers in food that she cooks or just bites the peppers straight forward from the garden without eating it with anything. Sometimes during really cold or really hot weather her pepper plants start to die, but somehow she manages to revive them.
