Trashy Flowers

Check out these flowers made from recycled materials by area students.

Creating flowers out of recycled “trash” proved to be elementary for students from all nine K-5 schools. Showing that recycling is not only the right but the bright thing to do, students recently fashioned vibrantly colored flowers for the Native Garden at the Agua Hedionda Lagoon Discovery Center at 1580 Cannon Road in Carlsbad. The effort was coordinated by the Center as part of its Earth Day community outreach program.

Center Executive Director Lisa Rodman reports, “Our Native Garden looks amazing with this latest splash of color, making it the most unique garden in Carlsbad.”

The Native Garden is free and open to the public. For information on Discovery Center hours and events, visit aguahedionda.org or call 760-804-1969.
