On Saturday morning, students from a local school helped dig, weed, and water the community garden behind the library. Some planted seedlings of lettuce, carrots, and silverbeet. Others cleared rubbish from the paths and filled buckets from the rainwater tank. By lunchtime, the garden looked tidy and ready for more planting. The volunteers said they wanted the garden to provide fresh vegetables for families in the neighbourhood and to make the area more welcoming. The librarian explained that the project also helped students learn how plants grow and why caring for shared spaces matters.

What is the main idea of the passage?

Students helped improve a community garden for the community. The garden needed more rain before anything could grow. The library borrowed tools for gardening. Students learned the names of different vegetables.
