The Problem

We wish to "green" our preschool. From our community map we noticed that we don't have a lot of green space in our immediate area. By adding container gardens and hanging gardens we can add plants and herbs to our playground and outdoor classroom space.

Our Plan

Our project will add mosquito repelling plants and herbs to our playground and outdoor classroom space. We would also like to plant butterfly plants to attract monarchs and other butterflies native to our area. We will plan, plant, water, and observe the life cycles of both plants and insects all while hopefully decreasing the mosquito population in our outdoor exploration areas.
