Last month the Humboldt County Soil and Water Conservation District visited elementary schools in the area to distribute pollinator shrubs to 167 fourth grade students.
During the presentation students were encouraged to submit photos of their newly planted and named shrubs to the Humboldt SWCD for the chance to win a $25 gift card to Casey’s. Out of the nine students who responded online, the winner was drawn at random during the Humboldt SWCD meeting on June 12.
The winner of the contest was:
Sapphire Aldrich, from Taft Elementary and her shrub who she named “Lexi”.
Selected as runner-up for the contest was:
Mitch Howey, also from Taft Elementary named his shrub “The Pollinator- I’ll Bee Back”.
