So that you can see the full effect of the May "Slow It, Spread It, Sink It" Storm Water Workshops and project in the All Shades parking lot, we thought we'd bring you some of the before and during shots for contrast.
What a difference some know-how, shovels, dedicated people, fruit trees, and native shrubs will make for beautification, community engagement, fun, and--the main attraction--capturing and filtering rain water runoff. We're super thankful and enjoying the payoff of hard work by those involved!
Many thanks to the Silver Lake Chamber of Commerce, the City of Los Angles Environmental Affairs Department, and Materials and Applications. Get more information on the program here.
Parking lot before shots.
The process.
Results: a beautiful new rain barrel.
Results: fruit trees (loquat here), native shrubs, and pineapple sage--yum!
