The document discusses creating a school garden to support declining bee populations. It notes that bees are essential for pollination but face threats from urbanization, farming, and pesticides. The proposed garden would plant bee-friendly flowers and herbs in the spring, summer and fall. It would provide an educational resource for students and the community about protecting bees and could offer students credits for garden maintenance. The project seeks sponsors and hopes the garden can be placed at the school or on its roof.

plants at school.

Spring: rosemary, dandelion, sage, clover.
Summer: lavender, sunflower, marigold, mallow,
Autumn: jerusalem artichoke, chrysanthemums

6. Our sponsors
We need support from organizations as

which supports economically small campaigns

7. Details about the garden
❖ Our Garden can be placed in the schools ground or on
schools roofs.
❖ Collaborate with the town and plant some of those plants
and the signs in the public parks.
❖ Put informative signs about bees

8. Our website
❖ Videos and images about how to grow
the plants of the garden
❖ Information about the decreasing
number of bees and advice about how
everyone can help bees to survive.

9. Why is building a garden good for
students?
There would be extra credits for students who
help with the maintenance of the garden.
