Plants of various kinds were ceremonially sowed by the Grade School, High School, College, NTP/ANTP, Graduate Studies/Lay/Alumni, and even student organizations.

"Think big through small things," says SSC-R Manila president Rev. Fr. Hernan B. Omecillo, OAR who led and spearheaded the event. He emphasized that raising a plant is a simple gesture that could mean a lot as in creating a bountiful future for our environment, the country and the world.

Held last June 2, the event was graced by Mr. Bascos of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources. In his remarks, he commended the SSC-R Community for lauding a project that truly drums up awareness as June is observed as the Environment Month.
