Check out this before and after from the work done in 2019 by an incredible team of Fannie Mae volunteers! They worked through heavy rain to help us revitalize Oxon Run Park by building horseshoe pits and flower beds for the community to use.

Got these Micro:bit Educational Foundation Climate Kits that have water pumps and moisture sensors. Had a student figuring it out today and the joy they had when it worked was epic. They then calculated the best way to apply it actual plant monitoring. Best ever. #stem #pblchat
