2006 recap: Landscape Challenge

January 9, 2007

During 2006 we won a native plant landscape makeover and below are a few pictures from the event. Our home was selected for a makeover over 75 other applicants. We had a great group of volunteers help transform our yard on a Saturday in September. I will continue posting pictures of the yard to my flickr site as the seasons change.
