Help
Our Schools GO WILD with Native Plants!
On Monday, April 7th, 2008, the
Resource
Conservation District of the Santa Monica Mountains,
funded by a grant from the State Water Resources Control Board via
Proposition 50 and managed by the Santa Monica Bay Restoration
Commission, broke ground at a Nativescaping Teaching
Garden at A. E. Wright Middle School. This garden will improve water
quality, restore native habitat and provide an opportunity for our
children to learn to grow Native Plants. The garden has been created
by Sara Alexander at Rodriguez & Satterthwaite Design Build Landscape,
a garden design firm located in Topanga, California. Special thanks to
Principal Steve Rosentsweig and Science Teacher Gayle Unzueta who
helped to make this happen!
If you are interested in helping our kids to Go Wild with Native
Plants, please contact our Project Manager Irene Quinones at

Stay tuned to find out when the plants are going in!
