Excited to get working on our first community Propagation Station! This Scout is working hard for his conservation badge, and we are happy to help him in this journey. In a nature preserve, we absolutely LOVE the ideas for this native habitat restoration. #PropagationStation #TheNectarPropagationStation #EcoRise #TheNectarBar #PlantNative #PeaceLoveAndButterflies #Butterflies #NativePlants #Nature #TheNecatarBar #HealthyEcosystem #NativesForWildlife #NativesAreImportant #PocketPrairie #NativePocketPrairie #NativeGrasslands #EcoregionsMatter #WaterSaver #WatershedWiseSA #MonarchMigration #MonarchNectar #NativeMilweed #NativeMilweedForMonarchs https://www.instagram.com/p/CKKT2VPMZyV/?igshid=1fuflzmymjrmo

The Nectar: Propagation Station at Kuentz Elementry. Big shout out to educator Isabel Anaya, and her students. Today these students learned how to do cuttings from five different plants. They chose the plants, took cuttings, planted the new cuttings, and watered in. These young further leaders are a wonderful team! #PropagationStation #TheNectarPropagationStation #EcoRise #EducationOutside #OutdoorClassroom #TheNectarBar #PlantNative #PeaceLoveAndButterflies #Butterflies #NativePlants #Nature #TheNecatarBar #HealthyEcosystem #NativesForWildlife #NativesAreImportant #PocketPrairie #NativePocketPrairie #NativeGrasslands #EcoregionsMatter #WaterSaver https://www.instagram.com/p/CHMmga2HfJK/?igshid=19xr4m76o27k8

Today we kicked off a new program called The Nectar: Propagation Station. These students will learn how to propagate plants from their own habitat. From seed, from cuttings, and root division, they will grow and document their progress. Once grown, they will take their knowledge and plants to a new school in need. A HUGE shout out to Kuentz Elementry and educator Isabel Anaya for being eager to learn and give back to the community.

EcoRise Youth Innovations | Fulmore Middle School Showcase | Austin, Texas

I enjoyed watching the end-of-semester EcoRise Youth Innovations Showcase of student inventions. What an amazing array of new "companies," inspiring pitches and clever inventions!

Photos (top to bottom), of inventors, their inventions:

Bows to Wear (upcycled bows)

T-Koozie, Inc. (koozies made from t-shirts - the stretchy parts - also, everyone's business pitches were great, but these guys were REALLY great)

Robo 3000 (an artful 'bot - this inventor shares my childhood love of melted crayons, smiles)

ReTired (decorative and useful planters - also a very charming inventor here, smiles)

Half a Backpack (upcycled)

EcoRise Teacher Training | 2013

EcoRise Youth Innovations hosted a curriculum training for teachers at The University of Texas at Austin in summer of 2013. This was one of my first experiences with EcoRise.

Post-EcoRise program evaluations are inspiring. Teachers seem to love the curriculum, which is now available online by registered teachers, for ease of access. Did you know:

Leadership: 89% of EcoRise students report feeling significantly more empowered to lead change and make a difference in their schools and community. An external evaluation by St. Edward’s found EcoRise boosted 21st century skills in systems thinking and self-confidence.

Stewardship: 96% of students have adopted at least 1 new behavior, and 76% adopted at least 3 new behaviors supporting sustainable living practices.

Eco-Literacy: 93% of students significantly increased their knowledge of environmental literacy and sustainability as it pertains to energy, water, waste, transportation, food, air quality and public spaces.

Green Tech and Design Careers: 77% are interested in pursuing green careers.

Instagram photos: 1) at top, a teacher learns how to construct a "solar oven," so that she may, in turn, teach her students; 2) Gina LaMotte, founder of EcoRise (lower left), welcomes teachers, discusses the forthcoming Eco-Audit, and a new online platform; 3) EcoRise board chair Craig Snook, ret. Dow Chemical, shares his thoughts on innovation.

I moved to Austin in late summer, 2013 to work with EcoRise, and I did so for a full year.
