Transform a courtyard into an outdoor classroom and space for clubs (i.e. hopefully an Ecosystem Club), Wednesday Wonders, and other learning opportunities.
Suitable nesting area for the local ducks who choose this space to nest and hatch their ducklings each year (also, water source as needed for a native habitat.)
Planned with plants native to this region of Michigan, including pollinator-attracting plants for insects and birds to support a healthy ecosystem.
Opportunities for student group (sports teams, NJHS, clubs, band/choir) to sign up to be regular maintainers of the garden space, and to learn ecology along the way.
Stress-relief nature area to students, teachers, and parents
