Urban Ecology: Demonstration Gardens

Demonstration gardens are small sized landscapes that show others how to effectively use native plants and other water conserving ideas in their own landscape. Acterra can design, provide plants for and help recruit community volunteers to install a demonstration garden for your school, city or organization.
