The garden is naturally divided Meadows into different areas: the upper rock wall area, the By Tiffanie Pirault northeast slope, the stream valley, the ravine, and the old Magnolia bog. Each of these areas is unique, but many of the plants present can live in most of the areas, wherever their light and moisture needs are met. Working in the native plant garden taught me so much about the importance of native plant populations on the landscape and how many more should be incorporated in public gardens. I learned even more about plant biology, plant identification, impacts of geology/soil on growth, and so much more. These lessons are valuable for my future schooling and I’m thankful I was able to get a head start with this internship. The main project I worked on was building natural trellises for the native plant garden with help from Brenda’s two assistant gardeners Samantha Vo and Andrew Taylor. Brenda tasked us with creating more natural looking trellises for the native plant garden to replace old metal ones which didn’t fit the design of the garden. We were provided with some articles outlining basic designs and we got to work; the designs we worked out were two teepee structures and one square structure. This project introduced me to landscape design, something I haven’t yet studied at school. It was interesting to look at materials and see how they could be incorporated in the design and how the flow of the garden could be impacted. Overall, this project helped me learn about designing and building structures that could then be incorporated in a pre- Tiffanie Pirault dressed to stay dry as she existing design. checks well data at Huntley Meadows.

    Rocky Mountain Chapter A4LE Newsletter October 2016 Welcome to the new Board: President Kelly Yamasaki, Past President Ken Field, President Elect Barb von der Heydt, Secretary/Treasurer Kara Aylesworth, At Large:Cathy Bellem, Al Slattery, Kari-elin Mock, Jane Crisler, Jennifer Song Koeppe, Amy Spatz, Sue Walker and brand new board members Pam Heitman and Josh Grenier. We bid a fond, and hopefully temporary, farewell to Alan Ford who is taking a break after many years of great contributions to A4LE. Recent Events Bond Program on June 23, 2016 sponsored by Brent Jones with Meteor was a panel discussion featuring many of the school districts in Colorado going for bonds during the 2016 fall elections. District Representatives talked to members about the size of the bonds they are pursuing, how the money will be used if the bonds are successful, and how the districts will manage those projects. While deferred maintenance issues are high on the list of needs, some innovative new spaces will certainly be anticipated. Be sure to get out and vote! We are planning a follow-up meeting to track the successful districts and to keep members informed about future plans. New Board Welcome Party on October 20 at the Infinite Monkey Theorem in Denver was sponsored by new board member Pam Heitman with Tandus Carpet. This well attended event was to introduce our new board to the Rocky Mountain Chapter members with pizza and drinks. It was a wonderful way to kick off our new year and get to know each other in a fun and relaxed atmosphere.
