Go Wild With Native Gardens in Our Local Schools
The Resource Conservation District of the Santa Monica Mountains, in a project funded by a grant from the State Water Resources Control Board via Proposition 50 and managed by the Santa Monica Bay Restoration Commission, will be planting Native Gardens at local schools. The Nativescaping Teaching Gardens will help improve water quality, restore native habitat and provide an opportunity for our children to learn to grow native plants. The gardens will be created by Sara Alexander at Rodriguez & Satterthwaite Design Build Landscape, a garden design firm located in Topanga, California.
