CPP is proud to rededicate our Rain Bird BioTrek’s Ethnobotany Garden to Mike Brown, the original curator of BioTrek, and the Tongva peoples who CPP respectfully acknowledges as the original caretakers of this land. We thank them for their support and alliance in environmental conservation and providing hands-on education for CPP students.  Since 2002, @biotrekcpp has become a hub on campus to promote hands-on learning in different environments, such as:  🐊 The Rainforest Learning Center  🌵 The Ethnobotany Garden Learning Center  🌴 The Mesozoic Garden and Learning Center  🐠 The Aquatic Biology Learning Center  Learn more about BioTrek via the 🔗 bio.
