school yard garden project underway

We have been successful in getting our little garden area going... we have planted some native plants (succulents, mostly) and some plants which will attract pollinators. The next thing we are working on is a rain collection system... water is so scarce here in Southern AZ that we need to be very creative... In addition, we are working on our bat houses. This is particularly fun right now... and fits in well with the season. I am hoping to get some pictures of the projects up soon.

They have recently expressed interest in planting a vegetable garden. They would like to donate the produce to the local food bank. I think this is a…See More
