Editor's Notes

  1. Project: Restoring habitat in Cibola Canyon Canyon area overgrazed and canyon walls were eroding BLM,Trouts Unlimited, and NM Wildness Alliance and volunteers came together to build up the canyon with sand bags Project will restore the spring for the wildlife. There are only 3 springs in this area of NM
  2. The Earth Quaker Bike Trip provided a powerful witness and sense of community to its participants and to those they visited along their way. The statement that Friends are willing to do things differently for the sake of Earth was reflected back by the Meetings visited, who wrestle with their own concern for the Earth.
  3. Edible perennial "Nibble Garden" for the playground includes Blueberries, Hardy Kiwi, Grapes, Passion fruit & Hazelnuts- all playground safe & kid friendly.  Beautiful Backyards, a sustainable landscaping nonprofit, is hired to implement the project.

  5. Our garden provides many different learning experiences for the children at Richmond Friends School covering several curricular areas. We study seasonal cycles and life cycles as a major focus in our understanding and studies of the natural world. The garden gives first hand experience with this in so many ways. Another major focus of our science curriculum is recycling and reuse and taking care of our earth. Our worm bin and the composting are an important part of this. It is exciting for the children to see their snack and lunch scraps turned into lovely enriched soil for the garden. Keeping track of weather: daily temperature recordings, daily graphing of sunny, rainy and snowy days, and checking the rain gauge fits in with both our science and math programs. Getting kids outside, observing and being physically active in the preparation and care for the garden is an important part of our curriculum also. Gardening without chemicals and eating products that are nutritionally good and healthy is also a part of the garden project and can lead to good discussions about health and nutrition.
  6. Beaver totes and Beaver Blocks are used to plant fame flower, pinks, chives, and prairie onion.
  7. Oasis in midst of urban blight area.
