The original idea for this project was inspired by Hannah Bement, a Biology teacher at Mountain Vista Governor's School, and an member of the eco-activism organization "Sustainability Matters"
Additionally, "Sustainability Matters" is currently spearheading a movement to build a Native Pollinator Movement in Jim Barnett Park. The project will not only provide a habitat for local birds and bees, it will also incorporate spaces for public education and recreation (for humans), making an initiative especially important for WPS students.
