Irrigation System - College Park

Project Status: Available


Project Overview

The planters in the kindergarten playground area have been long neglected, resulting in withered and dried-up plants. The kindergarten planter box irrigation system is in urgent need of replacement. The new irrigation system should be designed to dispense water daily to all areas of the planter box, ensuring consistent and adequate hydration for the plants.

The planter box will serve as an introduction to plant life for the kindergarteners who play right next to it, providing them with an opportunity to observe and learn about gardening and plant growth. There is a water spigot conveniently located next to one of the planter boxes, which can be utilized for the new irrigation system.
