to plant indigenous plants at local community centers.
It went incredible well! We successfully established a new indigenous plant garden at a community center.
Through this project, the group learned a lot. In particular, we learned about the effects of invasive plants on the native habitat and the loss of biodiversity it brings.
We might try to expand this project and do it on a larger scale.
My favorite part of the project was the collaboration with my teammates as well as observing the difference in the biodiversity of the community center. After planting, there was an increase in species observed in the area.
One suggestion that I have is to look up other methods of planting. For my project, we used a mound strategy which allowed us to conserve resources and purchase more plants.
