The native wildflower seeds were collected and donated by community member "Dr. Goose," also known as Jim Battagin.
Plumas Unified Outdoor Education Coordinator Rob Wade shared a special day with our Kindergartners and 1st graders at Quincy Elementary as they planted native wildflower seeds in the school garden, marking the Spring Equinox. This hands-on experience not only beautifies the campus but also provides our students with invaluable lessons in ecology, responsibility, and the joys of gardening.
Quincy Elementary Garden Manager Kari O'Reilly shares some planting tips with the students.
A school garden is a living classroom that encourages curiosity and nurtures a sense of stewardship towards our planet.
