We helped an ecological landscape group by staffing a booth during a recent harvest festival in Fair Oaks Park. After our shift ended, we strolled around the park, which includes a community garden, native plant garden and water conserving plantings. At the back of the native plant garden, we came across a series of interpretive panels we had created years ago showing people how they can conserve water. Better yet, someone was actually reading them!
Designing the panels was a lot of fun since we combined copy writing, illustration, photography and graphic design with our knowledge of water conservation strategies for landscapes. It was a surprise to turn a corner and come across all of them, well displayed and in good condition.
