Driving Forces:
· The school will look prettier
· They will add some more color to the school
· They will lighten the mood at the school.

Barriers:
· Ferny’s Nursery responding to email
· 1. Money
· How many flowers Ferny’s donates
· 2. Transporting materials
· 3. Death of flowers
· Flowers could be distracting
· 3. Maintaining care for the plants
· People might pick the flowers
· Seeing the benefits of the flowers

1. Money
If Ferny’s doesn’t donate as many flowers as we need, then money will be a possible barrier. Our plan is to have a fundraiser—specifically a candy sale. We can use that money to pay for the plants, soil, and other materials that we need.
We haven’t planned any details on our candy sale yet, but we would probably sell candy during lunch and let people know that the money will go towards planting flowers at the school. Our not-as-good backup plan is to ask for donations.

2. Transportation
Transportation is a barrier that we are prepared for. We need some way to bring the materials to the school. Luckily we have parents who are willing to drive us around.

3. Maintaining the Plants
Besides getting the flowers to the school, another part of the project is to care sheet to maintain them. We know we will have to water and weed them to help them live through the winter. We are also thinking of keeping the plants close to the building to keep them sheltered.
