This month, the Los Angeles Conservation Corps finished the landscaping at Central Basin headquarters. From spreading 80 cubic feet of mulch to planting California-native plants, they’ve transformed our constantly thirsty garden into a drought-friendly one!

If you know a professional landscaper, our upcoming free workshops can train them on how to make their gardens California-friendly, too. Check it out here!
