Long Beach residents joined Surfrider volunteers and the homeowners on a Saturday to:
- Finished up the redirection of the rain gutter downspout into the garden;
- Built healthy soil through "sheet mulching" - opening up the soil to let air in, applying compost tea, laying down painters paper, piling on compost and mulch;
- Installed plants and drip irrigation.
Now it's a beautiful Ocean Friendly Garden! Address: 2636 Maine Ave., Long Beach, CA 90806
