Description

This avenue-adjacent lot functions as a hands-on community hub focused on urban ecology. The grounds feature a rain harvesting system, a rain garden, and a composting program with community education. Volunteers work alongside local guides to maintain beds of native perennials, manage the nursery, and tend to a bird garden stocked with water and seed. The space also hosts service opportunities for student programs like the YLC, offering a practical setup for neighborhood conservation, down to autumn leaf bins and a trellis-shaded earth box.
