Stratton Academy of the Arts Annual Garden Partnership

May 25, 2019 by Zachary Schnepp

Thanks to Stratton Academy of the Arts fifth grade students, who helped design and plant the Annual Garden this year! Students learned how botany plays a role in the art of landscape design, working in groups to research plant types, choose a color scheme and visual design, and then calculate how many plants were needed to fill their 9’x10′ plot.

Be sure to stop in to see their unique designs – including fish, emojis, pixels, and the Queen of Hearts – as the gardens continue to grow this summer!
