Beyond the benefits to prisoners, and environment, this study is significant to scientists and small farmers regarding the propagation of mosses as a potential cash crop. Go Green With Moss!

Two for the price of one with both parties benefiting from the experiment. There is nothing more therapeutic than working with horticulture and this may help to rehabilitate offenders and even, perhaps, introduce them to a new career. I can think of nothing more worthwhile than to be involved in the regeneration of nature. It is to the credit of Fort Lewis that they have introduced this project on their rare prairie - long may it prosper.
