Grow Local Species at School

Enhance biodiversity and rich learning spaces

Think local, grow local to cut down on carbon emissions and build biodiversity.

Tips:

• Invite students to conduct a research project that investigates the plants that are native and hardy to your school’s specific ecozone. Focus on planting these on your school grounds.
• Plant a greening project that attracts and feeds local insect and bird species. A pollinator garden is a great way to support the struggling honey-bee population. Add milkweed for monarchs as well.
