Eco-Boutiquo Success!!!

I am pleased to tell you that the Eco-Boutiquo raised $307! Thank you to all of the CASP students for their help, and the overwhelming support from the Cabot community. The terrariums and Dutch Iris bulbs were the Eco-Boutiquo's most popular items.  The hemp bracelets and up-cycled journals were also a big hit. 

All of the money that was raised goes to purchasing plants for the Butterfly and Pizza Garden. So far Gardening Club and the 4/5 program planted two butterfly bushes, two blueberry bushes, liatris, phlox, iris, salvia, sunflowers, and honeysuckles.  The members of Gardening Club re-used wood planks and rocks to create a pizza-shaped herb and vegetable garden.  Students planted a variety of pizza toppings, such as peppers, tomatoes,  spinach, onions, basil, and oregano (WARNING SPICY).

If you have any questions about the gardens please contact Emma Payette in the 4/5 program. Thanks!
