At Miwok Park, Daily Acts completed its first public water-wise landscape installation through the Petaluma River Watershed Land Resilience Partnership. Prior to this project, this frequently trafficked park had little shade, major flooding, and expansive lawn. Through our partnership with the City of Petaluma Parks, ReLeaf Petaluma, Sonoma Resource Conservation District, ReBuilding Together and Conservation Corps North Bay, Daily Acts helped install over 30 shade trees, a 1,000 sq foot rain garden to mitigate flooding, and converted 9,3000 sq foot of irrigated lawn to a native landscape. Over the course of the installation 1,100 native plants were planted by 63 volunteers from various local organizations including World Centric, Guayaki, CVS, and Gaylen’s Way. The site will provide refuge of shade for neighbors and habitat for pollinators while saving 236,100 gallons of water each year.
