La Plaza Garden is a water-efficient demonstration garden that
conserves valuable resources. The La Plaza Garden was designed by
Sustainable Living Designs, a well known permaculture design firm.
Located
in the heart of Cotati, the garden features drought-tolerant plants,
water harvesting techniques, and habitat for birds, butterflies and
other beneficial insects.
To establish the La Plaza Garden, the
plants were initially hand-watered after planting in November and
December 2008. The plants have not required water since this initial
establishment period, but will have a drip irrigation system installed
in May 2009.
