Project Invigorate is a student initiated program that supports the on-campus Arboretum Learning by Leading Sustainable Horticulture Program and off-campus outreach to the Davis community, beginning with Marguerite Montgomery Elementary School (MME) in south Davis. Through redesigning landscapes with native and climate-adapted species, Project Invigorate helps our community reduce water usage, energy consumption, and maintenance requirements, and provide habitats for local pollinator populations. Overall, this project accomplishes three goals: 1) educates the UC Davis community and the public about sustainable horticulture, 2) involves undergraduate students, and 3) publicizes UC Davis’s effort in sustainability via outreach to our community.
