PHILADELPHIA -- Some students at Martin Luther King High School are farming.

The Weaver's Way Co-op helped set up the garden for the students.

"It's a lot of work," said Siomare Cherry, a senior at the school.

The garden started as a vacant lot, overgrown with grass and weeds.

The students said they are learning a lot about plants and eating healthy as well as picking up business skills.

Some of the items grown in the garden are donated.

It's just a matter of time before a nigger gets shot and killed for a tomato.

Tomato, no. Waddymelon, yes.

Those poor, poor vegetables.
