L.O.V.R. MEDIAN PLANTING
What a day! Over 40 Celebrate Los Osos volunteers came out Saturday, April 17, 2010 to replant the Los Osos Valley Road median. The morning shift completed planting by 11:15 a.m. The afternoon shift installed the entire drip irrigation system and spread mulch on the 6500 square foot median.
Suzanne Morrison of EARTHSCAPES donated countless hours of her professional time to plan, prepare and supervise the project. Volunteers were exhausted but exhilarated. We can all celebrate a successful job well done.
Thanks go to the generosity of organizations that donated or specially reduced prices for plants and materials for the medians. These are: Native Sons Nursery (plants), Earthscapes (plants), Farm Supply (irrigation supplies), San Luis Soils (soil & mulch), Rossi Transport (mulch), Forest Nursery (plants) and the Back Bay Inn landscape crew.
And let’s not forget Big Daddy’s splendid pizza lunch, Jimmy Bumps coffee and doughnuts, and Ralphs ice and liquid refreshments.
Finally, our heroes the volunteers, many of whom are Bay Osos Kiwanis members, who astonished the professional landscapers with their energy, efficiency, and unprecedented spirit of cooperation. See Photos
