🎉 Vote for Us! – Help us win Avery Labels’ Contest!
Okay… maybe our binder tabs are not as glamorous as the other entries (admittedly, great-looking bath & body products), but *ours* is an Irrigation Infrastructure Plan that will save millions of gallons of water for one of the County of Los Angeles Department of Parks & Recreation's largest parks – if that’s not sexy, what is? And our tabs look nice. Vote for us! (for 10 days) 😍

Going 6 years strong, our transformation of East LA's Brooklyn Early Education Center has given urban preschoolers an engaging, nature-based outdoor play space for delight and discovery. Los Angeles Unified School District 's first nationally certified Nature Explore Outdoor Classroom, it represents one of "the most exciting and innovative concepts currently being implemented at the District's early education centers."
http://home.lausd.net/apps/news/article/255642
"Students develop important hands-on skills while they learn and play in this beautiful outdoor setting." https://certified.natureexplore.org/brooklyn-early-education-center-2/
"Nature Explore Classrooms allow the District to convert a large part of existing asphalt and playground area into dynamic nature-based play and learning spaces. These classrooms enhance the physical environment and add natural beauty to the play areas. Children and their parents will be able to connect with the natural world as a regular part of their healthy growth and development in areas that lack parks and green environments."

Looking good! Checking on construction of our Wiseburn Walking Path near Hawthorne, a great project of the County of Los Angeles Department of Parks & Recreation. Solar lights, succulents, and a great new fitness path await the community. Ladybugs have already found their way to the native Cleveland Sage. :) April is World Landscape Architecture Month!
