The Problem
Our student run club hopes to support pollinators and address food insecurity in Little Rock, Arkansas. Additionally we aim to educate students at LR Central High school about beekeeping and gardening, providing a hands-on experience!
Our Plan
Our club volunteers at a community garden. We also care for a honeybee hives year round! With our grant we purchased equipment so more students can participate and made flower seed paper full of native seeds!
