Update on the Anzavista Street Park

The greening committee have met three times now and are moving along nicely with the neighborhood beautification project. If you'd like to participate in the planning please contact Jeny at 415-321-4237. Our next meeting is June 2nd at 6pm.

Rebecca Dye from Design Focus will be collaborating with us on the preliminary plant palette and donating her landscape architect services! We have a preliminary site plan from Daniel Hui a graduate student at UC Davis and are very excited and happy to have these two brilliant people working together with us to make this a true success.

The photo below is an example of planting done in the Outer Richmond neighborhood in SF. We will not be allowed by the city to plant trees in our project but we are looking to have a simple yet elegant design of drought tolerant plants with some vibrant colors to be a welcoming gate to the neighborhood.
