D32 Garden Visit

SO, Piner, D32

The Piner High School Key Club recently visited Hallberg Garden in Sebastopol, a renowned local garden known for its diverse collection of pollinator plants. The purpose of the visit was to explore potential plant varieties for their own school garden, which they aim to cultivate in the near future. This visit not only offered the students an opportunity to learn about different pollinator-friendly species but also provided them with practical insights into the design and maintenance of pollinator feeders, an essential component for supporting local ecosystems.

The Hallberg Garden team graciously shared their expertise, guiding the Key Club members through the various types of plants that thrive in the garden and attract essential pollinators such as bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds. The students left the garden inspired and equipped with ideas to enhance their school’s green spaces. With newfound knowledge, they are looking forward to implementing these ideas and contributing to a vibrant and sustainable environment on campus as they embark on another productive school year.
