Bowne High School raises saplings from historic 9/11 pear tree
From PIX11:
Apple trees may be more common in New York, after all it is the Big Apple. But one pear tree is getting much attention while helping to bring together a community.
Students from John Bowne High School in Flushing, Queens have embraced the seedlings of a 9/11 survivor tree and planted them in a special garden.

In 20 years they will be chopped down by another heartless developer.
Glad to see the agricultural department is doing well. IIRC it's the only agriculture program in NYC HS.
