Ms. Min's mom (Sophia) is an avid photographer and took some amazing pictures of the HMS Garden in July 2022. The Ecosystem was thriving, with the birds, butterflies, and cats coming to say hello.

Water fountains & refilling stations 2021-22
HMS was finally able to install these new Water Fountain stations all around campus thanks to the hard work of Mr. Jose (Security) and others.

Back on campus in April 2021 after CLOSE CLOSURE!!! 
Students that came back were able to restart the HMS Organic Garden.

They planted a bunch of veggies late April: strawberries, peppers, corn, zucchini, & tomatoes.

They also maintained the birdfeeders, composter, and the fruit trees. 

Thank you so much for helping out in the garden and can't wait for everything to mature & grow.

Danielle and Katie also placed food scraps in our Worm Composting bin. 
This will hopefully create rich, nutritious soil for our garden in a few weeks. 
Students are also giving our new veggies "liquid kelp" to help them grow strong organically.
