Sunday morning Open Garden
The Eco-Patch team held a second Open Garden for two hours May 23. The partially sunny mornig was ideal for a garden visit. It was nice to see our Glen Park Greenway project neighbors come over to see the patch. We share a common interest in figurimg out how to reclaim urban areas that are collateral damage from the installation of freeways years ago. Our goal is to restore the area into native wildflower habitat that supports the wildlife that thrived before the freeway was constructed.
We were happy to see other neighbors who learned about the event from the CNPS website. A visitor from the Planet Drum organization was interstsed in bringing volunteers to help with our project.
The plants were healthy, having been lightly watered 4 days earlier, but the challenge of providing the water needed to establish the new plants is our big problem at this time.
