EarthGen Teams Up with Students to Reimagine Their Campus

While awaiting the construction of their new school, Tyee High School students have partnered with EarthGen to transform their interim campus into an educational space that fosters a meaningful connection to the environment. In a recent collaborative session, students shared their ideas with EarthGen, focused on creating green spaces, minimizing litter, and decreasing impermeable surfaces.

EarthGen supports students in bringing their ideas to life, from raised garden beds to hanging plants and redesigned trash cans. Follow along for updates as Tyee High School students and EarthGen work together to install these elements this spring, creating a vibrant and sustainable space. The students want to incorporate these improvements into their new campus, creating a legacy of environmental responsibility.

Project Update:
