Implementation
We left Panya early on the Saturday morning to drive the fully packed truck to the cafe to drop off everything we would need for the following two days work, when the others would all be arriving. This also gave us the chance to spend Saturday afternoon visiting the garden centre and buying all the plants we would need for the garden.

The water filter system
We left the work on the water filter until the second day of the weekend, as the two members of the team most experienced in this were both unable to make the first day. This left us heading to the hardware store early in the morning,, armed with a long list of measurements and calculations of the materials we would need to build our box from scratch. Expecting a challenge we were all completely blown away when we randomly came across a store (whilst lost) to find a pre made filter system waiting for us in the doorway. It was pretty much exactly what we had designed. Magic. Of course it cut into our budget a little more harshly than we were hoping for, but it saved us hours of cutting circular holes in plastic boxes, which we were all silently imagining would leak anyway.
