Built by 6th and 7th graders in the Cultural After School Adventures (CASA) NYBG Nature Club at Bronx Excellence 1, this garden—once a patch of grass and weeds—isn’t just for people; it’s designed with nature in mind. Its purpose is to support pollinators, birds, and small mammals essential to healthy ecosystems. Of course, the students hope visitors will come, but their greater goal is to welcome the wildlife that makes urban nature possible, even in the most challenging environments.
