Butterfly & Hummingbird Garden

Phase1_09222011b

Pittsfield Project HOME, a habitat improvement initiative that aims to develop our schoolyard so it is attractive to wildlife and people as well as creating an outdoor classroom for our students, has completed it’s first project at the Elementary School. With the help of energetic Kindergarteners, hard working six graders and enthusiastic volunteers, a beautiful butterfly and hummingbird garden will now serve as a study area for the Kindergarten classes. The Project HOME team would like to give special thanks to Darcy and Aaron Kendall who championed the effort and generous donations received from Millican Nurseries and Leach Perennial Field.
