Noyo senior, Rey, spent his Saturday at school building this awesome greenhouse. Rey’s been interning at Xa Kako Dile: this year, and for his Capstone project he’s bring gardening to Noyo. And to support him, other students are building planter boxes in their Design Lab!

An honorable mention goes out to his brother James (also a Noyo senior) and their mom and dad for giving up their Saturday to help out too.
