Terracing and Planting Trees by Phi Nguyen Troop 654, San Jose Removing debris and non-natives (right)

My Project involved terracing along a long, sloped road to provide habitat for local birds and provide shades for walkers along the trail.  To accomplish my task, I had to remove debris and non-native plants in the area, create a terrace, and plant five trees and two shrubs.

The completion of my project, albeit time-consuming and arduous, yielded prodigious results.  However, I would not have been able to effectively carry out my project without the help of many individuals.
