The Problem

As part of our study, we discovered that bees, butterflies, and other pollinators are losing their natural habitats due to pollution, pesticide use, and habitat destruction. To help address this problem, our students want to take action by creating a pollinator-friendly garden on our school campus. This space will be filled with native plants that provide food and shelter for pollinators, while also serving as a lasting outdoor learning area that the entire school and community can enjoy for years to come.
