Garden Biomes project
Overview: In our school, we have a unique patch of land. It is called a Biome garden. A Biome is a community of all different types of landscapes such as desert, tundra, and tropical dry forest. Since this garden is run down, our goal is to study it and work on it to get the garden back up to speed. We plan to research the Biome: Desert. We will be posting project proposals on this website to show our plan for the desert biome. The Biome Garden Proposal document contains our intended plans for the garden and some pictures of our site we plan to work with.

Next steps to consider:
- Our group has limited time to use for this project. If we had more time, we would plant more desert plants around the shrubs. The plants we were planning to plant were native desert plants with thick leaves to store water. - We planned to take out the old stepping stones and lay down new tile stones with gravel surrounding them to give that authentic desert "feel." - This garden will be a good education tool because it teaches students the value of plant life and how to manage plants in a garden. Our main goal for this project is to provide an educational desert garden hopefully to be used by local middle and elementary schools. |
