Urban Wildflower Meadowing, Thursday, 4/15: Call for Volunteers!

with one comment

We are putting a CA native wildflower meadow downtown. The idea is to re-purpose a fallow lot into a beautiful living habitat for humming birds, butterflies and other pollinators.

If you are interested in helping out while learning more about gardening, irrigation and how to attract pollinators, then come on out Thursday, April 15th anytime between 10am-5pm.

Some of what we will be doing includes:

  • Finishing up the mounting 4’ pollinator plywood silhouettes (giant butterflies, hummingbirds, beetles etc.) on posts above the garden.
  • Creating more planting circles filled with sheet mulch, compost and soil.
  • Installing more drip irrigation.
  • Seeding more CA native wildflowers.

The location:

Large lot on Harrison between 1st and Essex streets.

Time and Date:

Thursday April 15th 10 am-4:30pm

We promise to once again make this fun.

RSVP to Gregory if you think you can make it,..even if just for an hour or so.

And as always, feel free to call or email with any questions you may have:
