A huge thank you to the Amazon.com employees who volunteered last week to restore the garden areas at the Buddie Ford Nature Center in Alexandria! As part of our Community Strong program, this group weeded out invasive plants and replaced them with native flowers that will attract pollinators and promote a thriving local ecosystem.
The group was led by some of the longtime volunteers at Buddie Ford who gave a short lesson on how to spot different types of weeds and invasive plants. Some Amazon team members painted inside, and others helped construct birdhouses for local children to paint during summer camp. Thank you to all of the Amazon employees for your hard work under the sun!
