Hello friends and supporters of the Diamond Heights Blvd. Median Project,
I hope you’re enjoying the rain and staying safe on the roads.
Please join us this Saturday, January 13, for our first volunteer work day of the new year. We will be assisted by the City Clean and Green Team.
Our work took a pause last year while SF Public Works repaired leaks to the original irrigation pipes underground. We are grateful to Lanita Henriquez at the City of San Francisco Community Challenge Grant for accommodating the delay while repairs were made. Our grant funds will be available for the installation of our landscape design later this spring.
Diamond Heights Blvd. Median Beautification Day
Date: this Saturday, January 13
Time: 9:00 a.m. to 1 p.m.
Location: Meet at St. Aidan’s Episcopal Church, 101 Gold Mine Dr, Parish Hall (Lower Level)
Refreshments: Morning snacks
Lunch: We will serve a hot lunch afterward to say thank you
Note: if the rain is a drizzle to light sprinkle, we will proceed. Only heavy rain and/or thick fog will cause a cancellation.
Recommended for 12 years and older; no gardening experience required, but there will be bending and kneeling (pads and gloves will be provided). Some light hoeing, too.
If you have preferred personal gloves and tools, you are welcome to bring them.
Before/After Photos:
A big thank you to the Diamond Heights Shopping Center, Safeway, and Harbor Villa Restaurant for their ongoing support (including volunteer hours, financial and in-kind donations, and enthusiastic support).
As always, thank you for your support and generous contribution of time.
See something beautiful every day…
All the best,
Paul
