The Problem
We want to fix the declining of native plants in our local community. This would increase biodiversity and the wellfare of the local wildlife.

We plan on giving away native plants to people in our community on Earth Day for them to plant in their own at home gardens.
The project went very well. We were able to distribute all of our succulents to people within our community in honor of Earth Day. People loved the gift and it seemed to really elevate our community.
Through this project, we learned the importance of having plants that are specific for a specific area. We also learned that while it can be hard to do certain things, in the end it is very worth it.
If we do this again then we would try to promote what we were doing a lot more. We mostly let the city promote it as we were tabling at their event but we would also push it out to people from our school/area.
Our favorite part of this project was the joy it brought to people's faces when they got to keep the plant. People were so excited to get it and we know it really helped.
The best tip is to look very excited because it will make the other people happier too. Also, know what you plan on saying before you get to the event!
