Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

My Kindness in Plants Club would like a couple of books about gardening in New Jersey. They want to know more about native plants, pollinators, and invasive plant species. This will allow them to select and design gardens with plants that will be most successful in our New Jersey gardens.

They have been working hard to beautify our large school grounds.

We are starting with our Peace Garden, electronic sign, and by a mustang statue. We will expand as we have plants and materials to cover more ground.

Any assistance you can provide will be appreciated.
