The area in which our library is located is becoming increasingly developed and urbanized. We want to support our local flora and fauna from habitat loss. We will build a space where they can flourish, safe from pesticides and creeping urbanization.
We have chosen to build a pollinator garden to support the biodiversity of our direct area. We plan to do this by buying plant bags and filling them with native plants that will support a variety of pollinators. We would work to build programming around our pollinator garden to teach our community members about the importance of native species and green spaces within a community. We have a program in which community members will be able to build watering spots for pollinators, a program to learn the importance of composting and soil stewardship, and a program to give attendees native flower seeds.
