150 # R I S I N G Y O U T H C O M M U N I T Y I M P A C T Echinacea is a perennial flower that celebrates the cultural heritage of the Old Sainte-Rose district in Laval. #RisingYouth grantee Stéphanie Fey gathered a group of horticulture students from the Collège Montmorency to plant and grow 100 echinacea plants as a way to celebrate the district's cultural heritage and encourage sustainable practices. At an event unveiling heritage plaques with information about the district and neighbourhood, Stéphanie distributed echinacea plants to the residents of the Old Sainte-Rose. There were 50 people in attendance. It was a beautiful gesture to preserve and celebrate heritage! " When working hand in hand with community collaborators, the work is much easier. We can easily take action to benefit the community when we work together."
