Yesterday we spent the day doing community service. My group went pick sweet potatoes through the Society of St. Andrew. We picked the sweet potatoes from the dirt, put them in bags, and put the bags in a truck. We were picking them for people who don’t have enough money to buy food. It is called gleaning. It felt good to know we were helping people who weren’t as fortunate as us. My group picked 110 bags and each bag held about ten pounds of potatoes, so overall my group picked about 1,100 pounds of potatoes. Everyone worked really hard and helped out picking potatoes.
