Love Your Bioswale Day – Unity Park

  • Unity Park Bioswale Richmond Greenway Trail and 17th St Richmond, CA 94804 USA (map)

From The Watershed Project:

Sign up!

November 15 @ 9:30 am – 12:00 pm

Wait, what’s a bioswale again? This special garden is sloped to encourage the rain to flow in, not away! It keeps the adjacent Greenway Trail from flooding, and offers a bounty of native plants for pollinators and birds.

Join us for our fall planting day! We will be adding more plants to the east end of the garden and topping off the mulch that is so important for helping soil to harvest and hold water. We will start the day with a short introduction to this garden and its many plants, and how it was designed to “plant water.” Then we will get our hands dirty, and finish the day with some snacks and conversation.

The best area to park is along Ohio Ave or the side streets near Unity Park. Then just walk into Unity Park and follow the trail past (or through) the orchard to meet us.
