Our Broward HDS B.R.I.D.G.E.S. students participated in The Home Depot Garden Challenge, and they did an amazing job! This year, the project was scaled down from an outdoor garden to individual succulent planters. Working in teams of 2-3, they had a $50 budget to choose succulents, potting soil, drainage rocks, and planters. Before heading to Home Depot, they learned all about succulent care through videos and a custom PowerPoint to guide their shopping. Each student had the chance to plant and take care of their very own succulent, a perfect way to apply their new skills!
