Help us transform a traditional lawn into habitat and learn how and why!
Join the Los Angeles Neighborhood Council Sustainability Alliance, LA Climate Reality, and other partners for this hands-on volunteer and learning opportunity transforming a water-hungry, monoculture grass lawn on a multifamily property into a biodiverse habitat zone that captures rainwater, reintroduces threatened native plants to the neighborhood, and supports pollinators and the web of life in our local ecosystem over the course of two days.
Volunteers will have an opportunity to learn about reconditioning compacted soil, creating eco-friendly weed barriers, determining soil type, mulching, planting techniques and establishment care for California native plants, water capture design options, and much more.
Street parking is free but limited. Public transit information to come.

Here is what the property looks like now:
