The Durango Campus for Flood Control District of Maricopa County project was led by our amazing friends over at ! One of the cool things about this project was assisting with the design of 3 10,000 gallon underground cisterns and one 1,000 gallon above ground cistern to capture rainwater off the roofs of the admin building and the shade structures which then is used for irrigation on our site! The great thing about rainwater is that it's chalk full of nitrogen and does not have the high salinity levels our potable water has. Although it's no , it's at least a close 2nd to what plants crave!

GSI + Bikes = šŸŽ‰Winning CombošŸŽ‰ Our Tempe, Wendler Drive Project went about providing connectivity through a neighborhood while passively utilizing the stormwater to irrigate our vegetation, and in turn growing trees that will cool the people who use it! Existing concrete was repurposed to provide check dams in our bioswales to slow stormwater runoff.

Tempe's version of the El Rio Neighborhood Center was the GSI Retrofit project we worked on with and Tempe's Sustainability Team. We looked at utilizing to mitigate their flooding issues while providing more shade to reduce the urban heat island. We also removed some hardscape to create an outdoor classroom and pollinator garden!

The Palo Verde's are blooming and it's that time of the year to celebrate the explosion of yellow flowers at today!

"Each spring, the Palo Verde trees burst into vibrant yellow blossoms, transforming our landscapes with a stunning display of color. More than just a visual delight, these blooms provide essential nectar for local pollinators such as bees and butterflies, playing a crucial role in sustaining our ecosystem.
