Learn Sustainable Gardening Practices with Cardiff Event

The following is an announcement from Cardiff 101 Main Street:

Cardiff 101 Main Street invites you to celebrate spring and sustainable gardening practices by attending a volunteer planting day on Saturday, May 18th from 9am-1pm. The mission of Carpentier Parkway is to promote our public, organic, sustainable, water wise, floral park in downtown Cardiff-by-the-Sea.

What was once a vacant lot paralleling the railroad train tracks between Birmingham Drive and Chesterfield Drive has been transformed by beautiful sustainable landscaping and a trail for all to enjoy. Carpentier Parkway has been featured in San Diego Home/Garden Lifestyles, Sunset Magazine’s Fresh Dirt blog and numerous local newspapers, and it serves as a remarkable example of what can be done with an unoccupied dirt lot to improve and beautify a downtown area.

Come support this community effort by helping to maintain this beautiful community park and make sure to buy a raffle ticket to be entered to win some fabulous prizes! Spring Fling is the perfect time to become part of history and sponsor a brick or paver at Carpentier Parkway’s Inspirational Terrace for Cardiff’s Centennial Celebration. Sponsor a brick for just $65 or a flagstone paver from $180. For more details please visit http://www.cardiff101.com/?page_id=588.
