Sharks Foundation and PG Partner to Establish Micro-Forest for Educational Purposes
The Sharks Foundation, in collaboration with the PG&E Foundation, has provided a $20,000 Community Assist Grant to the Walden West Foundation. This grant is aimed at funding the creation of a Miyawaki micro-forest at the Walden West Outdoor School. The initiative is part of the Sharks Foundation’s Youth Education pillar, which focuses on enhancing environmental education for children. The project involves the preparation of the ground, acquisition of necessary materials, and the installation of the micro-forest. This educational endeavor is designed to offer young learners hands-on experience in observing forest growth and understanding ecological and biological processes. The micro-forest will serve as a living classroom for thousands of current and future campers, providing them with valuable lessons in science and ecology.
