Native Flowers

The Native Plants Program is meant for elementary schools to teach them a fun way to learn composting. They build small native plant gardens on campus, and run a hands-on workshop where students turn an egg carton from home into a planter for California native wildflowers and then plant it in their school's garden. Over the year, students watch their flowers grow, see the bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds that visit, and learn how a small garden helps the local environment.
