Why we chose are project

     During the second round of ecology service learning projects, we wanted to create something that we knew would last and overall benefit the garden of Willow Glen High School. Our group had decided on building a pollinator box for our ESLP. A pollinator box can come in a variety of sizes, and is basically a small garden planted with native flowers that pollinators, such as bees and butterflies, can take pollen and nectar from. We chose this project because we though that  a pollinator box would help the recent decline in pollinators in California while also bringing some color to our school's garden. By the end of our project, we hope to have created a self-sufficient pollinator garden that will continue to benefit Willow Glen's garden for many years to come.
