Wildlife Jewels Plant for Hummingbirds & Butterflies Monarch Butterfly Day w/ Pacific Ridge School!
On February 5th, we had the pleasure of led a wonderful planting activity at Carlsbad’s Poinsettia Park with the dedicated 7th-grade Service Learning students from Pacific Ridge School. Together, we planted native flowers to help support local pollinators—including hummingbirds, butterflies, bees, and more—while learning about their essential roles in our ecosystem.

On February 5th, we had the pleasure of led a wonderful planting activity at Carlsbad’s Poinsettia Park with the dedicated 7th-grade Service Learning students from Pacific Ridge School. Together, we planted native flowers to help support local pollinators—including hummingbirds, butterflies, bees, and more—while learning about their essential roles in our ecosystem.
Students explored the fascinating world of pollinators, the importance of native plants in providing food and habitat, and took action by contributing to a healthier, more vibrant habitat. A special highlight: the activity coincided perfectly with National Monarch Butterfly Day! Students also learned about the Western Monarch Butterfly, the challenges they face, and how we can support their survival.
A beautiful day of learning, planting, and making a difference—for wildlife and the planet.
