My Apprentice Ecologist Initiative project was to plant trees. We started our project around 1 o’clock, June 20th. We went outside OCCC’s campus to plant trees. While we were there, my group planted a total of four Eastern Redbud trees. We accomplished this by digging a small hole, putting a baby tree’s roots into the hole, then covering up the roots.
I think the purpose of the project was to help the environment and make it look better. The trees help the environment by giving off oxygen.
Overall, the project took about one hour. Our group took about 20 minutes to plant all our trees and fill up the remaining holes.
We all finished at around 2.
