On Monday, April 7th, 2008 at 10:00 a.m., the Resource Conservation District of the Santa Monica Mountains, funded by a grant from the State Water Resources Control Board via Proposition 50 and managed by the Santa Monica Bay Restoration Commission is going to break ground at a Nativescaping Teaching Garden at A. E. Wright Middle School. This garden will improve water quality, restore native habitat and provide an opportunity for our children to learn to grow Native Plants. The garden has been created by Sara Alexander at Rodriguez & Satterthwaite Design Build Landscape, a garden design firm located in Topanga, California. Special thanks to Principal Steve Rosentsweig and Science Teacher Gayle Unzueta who helped to make this happen!
If you are interested in helping our kids to Go Wild with Native Plants, please contact our Project Manager Irene Quinones at info@rcdsmm.org or 818.597.87627 x 101!
Stay tuned to find out when the plants are going in! |
