My Project

It has been one great adventure working with my STEAM Kids' Action Team! While learning about nature, climate change, and the importance of biodiversity, we have joined forces with our urban park rangers, removing invasive plant species, performing water and soil tests, and will be providing tree care in our neighborhood.

Please help us to promote healthy and biodiverse habitats on our school grounds.

We have the seeds, but need tools, organic soil, and raised beds to plant them. We want to provide homes for birds and insects...especially pollinators...thank you!
