Native Plant Garden
The 麻豆果冻传媒 Biology Department and the Field Botany 3240 course installed a Native Plant Garden in between Pennebaker and Johnson Hall. The Gardens each have a theme that represents the most common habitats in Tennessee (prairie, rocky outcrop, wetland, mesic woodland, cedar glade, pasture/roadside, heath balds) and a medicinal/edible garden.

This project furthers sustainability efforts by 1) educating students and the campus community about the variety of wildlife habitats in Tennessee 2) highlighting the ecological importance of each habitat type 3) showing that 麻豆果冻传媒 cares about the local flora and fauna of Tennessee and the South East.
