The Problem
Throughout our brief time at Sequoyah, we few members of the school gardening club have noticed an a certain area, behind our science classroom, that is avoided by most of our school. This area is a small overgrown patch of small trees and plants that cover it. We would like to change that. We believe that with the money from Roots and Shoots, we can truly turn this space from an overgrown backyard into a beautiful and peaceful garden that people on the Sequoyah campus can enjoy. To address this issue we will be working with Tree People to dig up most of the invasive plants in that area, to make space for native plants that will thrive in small shady areas.
