The landscapers hired to plant flowers and grasses around the office didn\u2019t exactly put their best foot forward, to put it nicely. As a result, most of the plants died leaving the office with barren, dry, dusty soil. So Sheila had the idea to create native flowers and pollinator garden beds. These last 2 weeks have been dedicated to building said beds. This project was a nice reprieve from collecting seeds. I got a chance to get back to the activity I love to do: garden. I had forgotten how much I loved it actually. Jacob, Sheila, and I didn\u2019t do all of the work. We have to give many thanks to the Youth Conservation Corps guys for their tireless efforts in helping us lay rock around the beds and build trails around the office.<\/p>\n<p>Putting the finishing touches:<\/p>\n<p>Fourteen tons of rock from Arizona, 2.5 truck beds of mulch, and over 170 native plants later here is the finish product:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/dev-clm-blog.pantheonsite.io\/?attachment_id=31611\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-31611\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-31611\" src=\"https:\/\/dev-clm-blog.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/IMG_2460-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.clminternship.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/IMG_2460-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.clminternship.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/IMG_2460-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.clminternship.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/IMG_2460-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/blog.clminternship.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/IMG_2460-1024x768.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/dev-clm-blog.pantheonsite.io\/?attachment_id=31610\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-31610\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-31610\" src=\"https:\/\/dev-clm-blog.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/IMG_2453-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.clminternship.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/IMG_2453-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.clminternship.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/IMG_2453-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.clminternship.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/IMG_2453-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/blog.clminternship.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/IMG_2453-1024x768.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/dev-clm-blog.pantheonsite.io\/?attachment_id=31609\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-31609\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-31609\" src=\"https:\/\/dev-clm-blog.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/IMG_2450-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.clminternship.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/IMG_2450-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.clminternship.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/IMG_2450-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.clminternship.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/IMG_2450-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/blog.clminternship.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/IMG_2450-1024x768.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/dev-clm-blog.pantheonsite.io\/?attachment_id=31608\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-31608\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-31608\" src=\"https:\/\/dev-clm-blog.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/IMG_2448-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.clminternship.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/IMG_2448-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.clminternship.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/IMG_2448-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.clminternship.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/IMG_2448-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/blog.clminternship.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/IMG_2448-1024x768.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We have changed gears and focused our efforts towards beautifying our office.
