Garden Revitalization

There are so many gardens on campus and they all need some love. The Garden Revitalization Program will refurbish our gardens throughout the campus, bring in native plants, create a certified Monarch Waystation on campus, and reduce the overall maintenance of the gardens by planting companion species.
