On November 12th, Hood students with the Hood Environmental Advocacy Team (HEAT) joined with FWP members Rachel Zigler, Kathy Soria and Ginny Brace to plant warm season grasses along an exposed streambank of Carroll Creek and to plant several hardy pasture roses on a hill in Waterford Park. The roses thrive in dry areas. The warm season grasses send their roots deep and will help to stabilize the streambank far more effectively than shallow-rooted fescues that currently line the bank.
