Farias Early Childhood Center’s student garden recently was certified as a wildlife habitat by the National Wildlife Federation.
The Farias garden provides a haven for small animals and insects that desperately need homes in Houston’s urban environment. In order to achieve certification, the garden had to meet criteria such as providing cover, nectar, and water for wildlife.
