Opportunities From: Get Connected

Teachers, students, and master gardeners will be working together to create a community garden at Peachblow Crossing Elementary. Through student-led presentations, volunteers and community members will gain a deep understanding of how the School Pollinator Garden at Peachblow Crossing Elementary creates lasting impact across multiple ecological and educational dimensions. Students will share their firsthand experiences and research about the garden's role in supporting local bird and insect populations, demonstrating how this initiative extends beyond the school grounds to benefit the entire community. The garden's integration into the Pollinator Pathway of Delaware County represents a significant step toward creating a larger network of pesticide-free corridors that provide essential habitat and nutrition for pollinators and birds. As part of this broader initiative, the School Pollinator Garden will serve as a vital link in connecting habitats between local schools and community spaces, fostering biodiversity and ecological resilience throughout the region. This connection to the larger Pollinator Pathway network not only amplifies the garden's environmental impact but also provides volunteers with a tangible example of how local conservation efforts contribute to broader regional sustainability goals.
