Oakland Zoo Volunteer Day

Oakland Zoo Volunteer Day

Oakland Zoo Volunteer Day

On June 4, 2022, the California Landscape Contractors Association (CLCA) led a volunteer event to assist the Oakland Zoo with the installation of their new Browse Garden. The Browse Garden will grow a variety of plants and provide a local food source for animals at the zoo.

 

Terra Landscape partnered with other CLCA members in donating materials and personnel to support the new installation. We donated $1,000 worth of plants and had four volunteer representatives actively involved throughout the day.  Two of our top Irrigation Technicians (Fernando and Jose) led the design and installation of the new irrigation system while Company President Cassidy and his daughter Cayla  contributed physical labor and helped to consume a disproportionate share of the snacks and beverages.

 

At the start of the day, the large plot of land dedicated to the Browse Garden had nothing more than rows of trenches for future irrigation lines. By the end of the day, we had installed the irrigation system and planted one section of the garden with banana trees.

 

We are proud to support organizations like the Oakland Zoo who provide so much value to the communities we serve.
