Shopping For Natives

This is a long way from East Hollywood…

Spent the day doing shopping for tomorrow’s Cahuenga Library Fall Planting event, buying native plants and seeds, taking me all sorts of places.

What I’ve Been Up To – Fall Planting

And the weather was rather warm, too. But fortunately we only had a smaller task at hand. The mound of garbage that usually piles up next to […]

Cleaning Up The Library, August Edition

Today being the first Saturday of the month, it’s once again time to tend to the Cahuenga Library Botanical Gardens for our monthly mini-cleanup of our 94-year old LAPL branch‘s grounds!

This being August, I wondered if Summer weather might be a deterrent for people, but apparently so far this season, […]
