Summary

NPI is hosting a Work Party at Ocean View Growing Grounds to prep the garden site before implementing new native plants!

Description

Native Plant Invasion (NPI) is on a mission to restore non-native areas to their natural, native state. Our efforts focus on schools and underserved communities, promoting sustainable urban greening and fostering local ecosystems. Through these gardens, we aim to inspire education and engagement around the importance of native planting, encouraging broader community involvement in ecological restoration.

 

NPI is collaborating with Ocean View Growing Grounds (OVGG) to create a native garden! We will be hosting a Work Party at OVGG to prep the garden site before implementing new native plants. During the event we will be removing Bermuda grass, covering the area with mulch, and using other gardening techniques recommended by the California Native Plant Society.

 

What to Bring:

  • Closed-toe shoes
  • Sun protection (sunscreen, hat)
  • Water
  • Your passion for native plants!
