      1. Fire Defensive Garden at Sierra Madre Post Office

         The City of Sierra Madre and its residents are committed to reclaiming water independence. This garden will help! Its expansive bioswale helped prevent runoff in the dramatic rains of 2023, adding to the water sunk by city hall’s two rain gardens. The community worked together to install foliage native to the foothills of LA in early 2023. It will be fully established by the 2025-26 rainy season.
         This garden would meet the fire defensive specifications of USGBC-LA's course and/or DefensibleSpace.org.
