Assignment #1: Natalie Medina

I'm Natalie Medina and I live in San Jose, California. I was born in Palo Alto, Ca and lived in South San Francisco until my family decided to move to San Jose, then Willow Glen. 

I really haven't grown my own food or plants, however, my mom used to grow food. It mainly consisted of tomatoes, bell peppers and chilies. She used to keep a garden in the backyard and I would water the plants sometimes. However, I don't remember it much.   When i think of gardening, I think of my grandma. When I was younger, I would garden with her. We would go to the nursery together and I would pick out flowers to grow, but she would grow them; she has a super green thumb. She has a gorgeous backyard garden, but mainly only grows flowers and plants.
