They finished the garden off with a mulch boarder and deer proof fencing as well as constructed and installed bamboo bee houses around the garden. This garden received the Certified Wildlife Habitat designation by the National Wildlife Association.

Got Stem? We saw that there has been a gender and age stereotype in S.T.E.M. related activities. There wasn’t a lot focused on young girls. We held workshops for girls in our community ages 7 to 9 years old. We taught them how they can bring S.T.E.M. into their every day lives and perhaps have a career in it.

Local Food Insecurity. We collected monthly donations and distributed them at Christ Church in Summit. Our project has been taken on by other groups and organizations to continue our “treat table” that we started. Our treats were actually items not covered by the SNAP (food stamp) program such as toothpaste, deodorant, shampoo, and feminine hygiene products to name a few.
