Coordinated by BBVN's Urban Forestry Committee and leaders from the
Arroyo Chico neighborhood, members of both neighborhoods came together in
March, 2017 to do significant maintenance on the plant growth along Winsett
Street (the boundary between the two neighborhoods). The group worked to remove
invasive buffelgrass and prune back vegetation along this street, got great
results, and demonstrated an excellent collaborative partnership in the process. Organized by Richard Roati.This was just one of many landscaping outings organized by our Urban Forestry Committee. Volunteering with the Urban Foresters provides a wonderful opportunity to learn more about native desert plants, invasive species, and general landscaping techniques. It also provides a way for neighbors to join in on a true community commitment to take care of our neighborhood green space. Click on the photo for more pictures. |
