STEM Task Force: Pollinator Garden Update

At the end of February, Summit middle schoolers covered the southwest corner of the backyard with cardboard and then spread mulch over it. The plan is to kill the grass underneath the cardboard and still provide suitable soil conditions for the new native flora species that will be planted in the area.
