This program helps local students connect with nature and take ownership of their environment by planting native plants at their schools. It’s a fun and meaningful way to beautify school campuses, promote outdoor learning, and build community pride.
The Kids Keep Blount Beautiful is a grant-funded education and beautification program that provides City of Alcoa, City of Maryville, and Blount County schools with native plants for their school property. This program aims to give local students a sense of community pride and the opportunity to participate in a planting project that beautifies their school.
The native planting projects are designed to beautify school properties, create outdoor learning spaces, establish wildlife habitats, and address environmental factors such as lack of shade and improper drainage.
