Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

As we work in the garden, we are noticing some mounds by our trees. These mounds are caused by the gophers we have around here. We have lost one tree due to this. With the mole repellent, that will not be a problem anymore. It will set off a sound they do not like and leave our trees and other plants alone. The garden tool will help with the smaller weeds around the trees.

When we come by the school we want to see a well maintained garden area.

With these tools we will be able make that happen. My students love to work in the garden. We just don't have enough smaller tools to get around the areas needed. These will help my students take pride in our garden and teach them how to maintain our area.
