A: A little piece of nature in an urban enviroment.

The MiniNature Reserve Program contacts small businesses in low income areas and asks for permission to beautify their storefront at no cost to them. Upon business owner approval, we install California native plants in parkways and/or containers. We assign one or two volunteers to maintain and care for the area while it becomes established. Each Mini Nature Reserve project follows the below guidelines:
 

  • The small business owner agrees to supply the water during establishment.

  • The small business owner does not pay for any plants or labor. 

  • Plants in parkways are never taller than 3 feet.

  • Each parkway gets a cute little sign attached to it.

  • All plants are native to the zipcode they are located in.
